Girly"The Many of us have trust issues.

Some of us tried long and hard to trust untrustworthy people. Over and again, we believed lies and promises never to be kept. Some of us tried to trust people for the impossible; for instance, trusting a practicing alcoholic not to drink again.

Some of us trusted our Higher Power inappropriately. We trusted God to make other people do what we wanted, then felt betrayed when that didn't work out.

Some of us were taught that life couldn't be trusted, that we had to control and manipulate our way through.

Most of us were taught, inappropriately, that we couldn't trust ourselves.

In recovery, we're healing from our trust issues. We're learning to trust again. The first lesson in trust is this: We can learn to trust ourselves. We can be trusted. If others have taught us we cannot trust ourselves, they were lying. Addictions and dysfunctional systems make people lie.

We can learn to appropriately trust our Higher Power - not to make people do what we wanted them to, but to help us take care of ourselves, and to bring about the best possible circumstances, at the best possible times, in our life.

We can trust the process - of life and recovery. We do not have to control, obsess, or become hyper vigilant. We may not always understand where we are going, or what's being worked out in us, but we can trust that something good is happening.

When we learn to do this, we are ready to learn to trust other people. When we trust our Higher Power and when we trust ourselves, we will know who to trust and what to trust that person for.

Perhaps we always did. We just didn't listen closely enough to ourselves or trust what we heard.

Today, I will affirm that I can learn to trust appropriately. I can trust my Higher Power, my recovery, and myself. I can learn to appropriately trust others too.


Girly Comments & Graphics

Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you
Are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here,
And you must treat it as a powerful stranger,
Must ask permission to know it and be known.

The forest breathes. Listen. It answers,
I have made this place around you.
If you leave it, you may come back again, saying Here.
No two trees are the same to Raven.
No two branches are the same to Wren.
If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you,
You are surely lost. Stand still. The forest knows
Where you are. You must let it find you.commentbaby.com

For codependents







KEEP me truthful in knowing where I spend, where my values actually are.
LET me not skip this monthly knowing.
“ INSTRUCT me in judicious spending and in gratitude with no holds barred.

MY LORD I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE I AM GOING.
I DO NOT SEE THE ROAD AHEAD OF ME.
I CANNOT KNOW FOR CERTAIN WHERE IT WILL END.
NOR DO I REALLY KNOW MYSELF, and the FACT THAT I THINK I AM FOLLOWING YOUR WILL DOES NOT MEAN THAT I AM ACTUALLY DOING SO.
BUT I BELIEVE THAT THE DESIRE TO PLEASE YOU IN FACT PLEASES YOU AND I HOPE THAT I HAVE THAT DESIRE IN ALL THAT I DO.
AND I KNOW THAT IF I DO THIS, YOU WILL LEAD ME BY THE RIGHT ROAD ALTHOUGH I MAY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT IIT.
THEREFOR WILL I TRUST YOU ALWAYS
I WILL NOT FEAR, FOR YOU ARE EVER WITH ME AND YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE ME TO FACE MY PERILS ALONE.[url=http://www.satisfaction.com/codes/welcome-graphics-comments-1.php] [/url]
