to sit in silence
Posted On 04/10/2008 00:17:12 by jenn-jenn

practicing doing the right thing for my life today requires at times for me to not do what "I want" to do. i am finding myself wanting to distract myself at times but i know deep down that ultimately that does not serve it's purpose in my life anymore. to sit with the uncomfortableness and just feel the feelings that i am experiencing. yes, although uncomfortable there is a sense of peace inside. i sense that i am moving closer to the place where i am more in tune with Creator's will.  
living alone, no cable, no pets, no children, no mate is at times lonely. i long for people to share my life with, yet it is in the stillness that i find i can be content, all that is in me today. i am okay just as i am right now sitting here as i type these words, knowing that when i do take the next right action, i get filled with all i need anyway.

I am only 24 days sober and am not yet able to just sit with my uncomfortable feelings..I still have all my addictive behaviors except I don't use drugs/alcohol. My favorite friend is running..I run away from everything but now I am getting very tired from all the running and just want to find the kind of peace you have found.

Living in our own skins is hard at times- but I remember living without tv, pets or a mate for the first year of my sobriety- in order to : accept, embrace and celebrate"

who I was at that time- cheers, Nia

to sit with the uncomfortableness and just feel the feelings sounds like a scary place to me, but I think I'll give it a try and see what I tune in to.  Thanks for the post.
