hello to all!

I am new here… but want to just say a few things.

I went to a meeting to day and the topic was from the reading in the NA Just For Today meditation book… Courage.

I am looking at making another major change in my life by moving back to Key West… my spiritual home. I moved back to my home state of Michigan to help my daughter in December of 2007… but I am seeing now that I MUST move back home to KW. I am not happy here… and need my solace.

Recovery, my friends and my life were full there. Although I have friends here… my spirit soared in the Keys and my life was simple and full. Here, the struggle for peace and harmony is so very hard.

The economy is really bad here in Michigan… Actually, I know it is bad everywhere in America right now… and the recent problems on Wall Street have many in a tizzy over our future… I pray for all of that big mess to smooth out.

The courage to change is my immediate destiny. I need courage to do what I must to get my butt back to the place where I belong. I need courage to talk to my daughter about why I must go… and be ready for whatever she may have to say. I am probably going to hear a loving "I know Mom, do what you have to… ", from her… but I have my fears that she will beg me to stay… and that I will be a mess of guilt. (See how projection and fear are messing me up *note to self*)

So, that is where I am at and I have much work to do to get myself  on the ball with the various things I need to do… and one of them is courage to throw away or give away the accumulation of things that are not needs. *EXPLANATION* I am a pack rat. I have to minimize. I have to minimize… nuff said. 😉

So, that is where I am at, just for today, and I am, I AM, going to take those baby steps toward my future. I am worthy of a fully blossomed me… I am worthy of peace and harmony… I am worthy of the abundance that courage grants me.

Peace out!
