Feeling okay


It's my fourth day of feeling good about myself. And it's been a long time since I didn't get into the self-pity routine of manipulation. I feel at peace with myself and those that I love.

I went for another walk on the beach last night after the rain. It was a mild night and the beach was deserted. I enjoy this time of year when there are no people around.

In another week, a person who I care about will be leaving for a while. I'm trying not to think about that and the sorrow likely to come. It's hard not to grieve, but I'm trying to stay in the moment and live each day as if it is the last. I am praying for strength and hope today.

    I remember a looooong time member (she is my favorite and just turned 70).. said when she stopped playing 'the victim' she healed.

    Me too. I am not going to play victim anymore. And I don't just want to be a survivor I want to THRIVE.
