โ opening my mind... โ

so a new idea cannot be grafted on to a closed mind.
makes me wonder exactly how open-minded i have been lately, after all i have not shared in almost a week, even though i have been at 4 meetings or so. part of the reason is i was jumping to conclusions and judging what was being shared instead of listening. one of the things i find myself doing is if i make a judgement about what is being shared i do not open my mouth and then i do not have to worry about offending or chasing someone away. i am also moving through a formal 2nd step and have started to look at my insanity, after writing about hope and i am not comfortable looking at my insanity. everyone else‘s insanity is just fine, i do not mind sharing my opinion on that, but once again i find myself withdrawing into myself and limiting what i share to those i trust without reservations and leaving the rest of those in my life out in the cold, at least with regards to what is exactly going on with me. but i also have FAITH that this too will pass and i once again will be able to open up to everyone again, which for right now is a new idea and an opening of my mind.
