I am learning to let go - Cyber Recovery Social Network Forums

*janbear* · 08-11-2006, 06:39 PM

I had dreams for my life. I envisioned that one day, i would have a family and a house and a good job. I dreamed my dream for a happy life. I never dreamed I would develop a dual disorder and perhaps have to let go of some dreams.

But in coming as far as I have in my recovery, I now believe that I have a higher power who truly cares about me and wants me to be happy. And I am learning to trust my higher power. I believe that I can still have a happy life, although it may look different from the vision in my dreams.

I will read step Three and pray to accept myself and my life

From:Today I will do one Thing

My dream is truly insane. A brotherhood of mankind that everyone knows to not believe in. A love of one another, that we could always be there for each other. A God not sought for salvation, but opportunity instead. Wild isn't it? We all have our crazy ideas. I would guess that this is the reason I was stuck on step 2.
