∞ dealing with frustration ∞
posted: Sun, Jan 2, 2005 09:19:12 AM

 

i have been a mass of frustrations for the past 6 weeks and have been handling the feelings with less than stellar behaviors (a nice spin on fucked-up). i still do not have a clue what is going on inside, but i have sat down with my sponsor and am following his suggested course of action (which is new and different).
i could have used this reading about a month ago, the reminder to breathe and ask GOD for whatever it is i need to handle the situation would have made my life a whole lot smoother. of course if wishes were horses we all would ride. hopefully i will be remember this reading over the next rough patch i have and work through the little and not so little speed bumps of life a bit more sanely.
