Under Full Sail

[MajestyJo]

Would prefer to not have boring, change my attitude and just be in the moment, no matter what is happening or not happening.

No one can change my attitude but me. First I have to be aware that I have one, then I have to admit that it is there, accept it, and take action to change it. The best action to take is prayer, but if I am bored, what am I not doing?

Under full sail, is like running on 8 cylinders, the vessel is finely tuned, going with the flow, and enjoying life. Even when I have difficulties, pain, worries about family, etc. my God is only a prayer away and if I am bored or hurting, I come to the boards to read and share.

Because of my C.O.P.D. and other issues with arthritis, I don't go out at night and seldom get to a meeting. When I get there it is a blessing, and I always leave feeling better than I did going in. If I am feeling good when I go in, I need to pay it forward and share it with others.

Life happens, but we have the tools in recovery to deal with them. Life didn't change, I did. It is generally my outlook and how I perceive things. It can be lack of acceptance and a projection of expectations on myself or onto others. What ever it is, God is the Master Healer and Planner.
