A is for Acceptance. It has been making itself known to me in one form or another. I know I need to find a measure of acceptance in order to move forward. I know I don't have to like it, in order to accept it. As the Big Book says, I need to lower my expectations so I can find a higher level of acceptance. It works for me when I work it.

A is or Allow. Allow your God to work through you. Get out of your own way. Open your mind to new things, don't limit your God by your thoughts and actions

A is for Anger. It is a feeling, just like others and normal, but a danger to people in recovery. We need to express our anger in healthy ways. We need to let it go and not project it onto others.

Hit a pillow, go for a walk, talk it out with your sponsor or a friend, and/or journal.

A is for Action. We need to follow thought with action. Either do or don't, just because I have a feeling doesn't mean I have to act on it. Use the slogan, Hesitate and Meditate. Ask for your inner knowing. When the time is right you will know. If you don't know, it is time for action of another kind. Take action of another kind, pray and turn it over to your Higher Power. He will direct your path.
