July 1: Minding My Own Business
Today I will mind my own business. Interfering in other people's lives
doesn't help them or me. Sometimes I get fascinated by another person's
problems as a way of getting away from my own insides. Sometimes I am
actually seduced or excited by trouble and crisis. This is an old
pattern and can only get me into trouble as a recovered person. I will
be honest with myself today about my motivation for getting involved
with someone else's turmoil. Is it coming from a place of caring and
genuine concern or is my radar just out for a sticky situation in which
to lose myself or take a vacation from my own insides? I will look
within to see if I am repeating a "go-for-the-crisis" behavior pattern
or simply being helpful.
I will take a personal inventory.
"And whatsoever else shall hap tonight, Give it an understanding, but
not tongue."
William Shakespeare
