Today was a very interesting day! I talked a lot about how my family is in disarray! It makes me really frustrated and it makes me sad, too. However, I know that I need to let go of things I can't control and the way people in my family choose to be is surely outside of my control. I learned that the sooner the better I "let go" to free up energy for me to work on the things in my life that I do have control over. See I have allowed my family to keep me stuck for far too long. All the manipulation, guilt trips,coersion, persuasion and worry. All the drama. All the sadness, pain, and tears have kept me in a constant state of being distress about a issue that I have no power to change! But my goal is to gain more control over my own life. Pushing myself to control what I can not has takin up so much of my time and mental energy that I have absolutely no control over my life at all. Let go! Let go I say. People places and things are those I can't control and need not try. If I accept what I can't change I will have more mental energy and empower myself to work towards changing the things I can. Like structure at home, boundaries and limits in relationshiips, and controlling raw emotions, not engaging them when temptations are stroNg. I believe this whole heartedly. God grant me the serinity ...
This was the hightlight of my day. All else was uneventful.
