KEYS TO FREEDOM......Learning to survive our impulses without acting out is a new freedom. Over time, the desire to act out against our values begins to fade. Our self-made prisons no longer serve us. We are free to explore ans dicover what we are good at. We are free to participate, create, care and share, surprise ourselves, take risks , be vulnerable, and stand on our own two feet. We find our beliefs and begin to act on them. We make decisions based on our own values. We walk through fear and wake up to the miracles that surrounds us. We are free to be who we are and live as we choose. We do not pretend that there are no mistakes in recovery, but sometimes those mistakes can take us in a direction we hadnt thought of before. Having a new way to live means that we have to live in new ways, and we can get confused or lost even when we have many years clean. Time is not the same as experience.. Time represents the opportunity for GROWTH, but we still have to step up to the challenge and be open to the lessons. The difference between HUMILITY and HUMILIATION can be the level of acceptance we have about the information we get. HUMILITY IS NOT THINKING LESS OF OURSLEVES.. IT IS THINKING OF OURSELVES LESS
