± by surrendering, acting on faith, and living my life ±
posted: Wed, Jun 26, 2013 10:21:09 AM
according to the simple spiritual principles of this program, i can stop worrying and start living.
well, not a whole lot to worry about this morning, HOWEVER, self-will running rampant, has been a theme since i got out of bed late. nothing, and i mean NOTHING, went according to my plan, until i walked into the office. ironically what i thought was broken, was actually working and all i had to do was fix a very little piece of my work yesterday.
so although there could be a whole lot to write about this morning, i have work to do, phone calls to make and just a very busy day to follow through on. i am doing better today, as denial of my pain is taking over, only a few more stages to go through and i will be back at acceptance in my grief process.
