walk this way...

what are we really doing when we make a decision to turn our will and our life over to a power greater than ourselves, or to the care of god as we understand god?

it means simply that we decide to walk another way other than the way we have walked...think another way than the way we have thought...live another way than the way we have lived...

we have decided, in other words, that we need some power other than this self-will-run-riot to direct our path...and that we will willingly turn our will and life over to that directing and guiding power...

so many think they have to figure out what this power is before doing this...but all we need is willingness and honesty for that door to open to happiness, joy, and freedom...

willingness automatically taps into this power...and this power is unlimited...and always within you...it is awareness itself...within all life and through all life...spirit of the universe...when you are in tune with this source...and you stay out of the way...your journey in this life is one of peace and harmony with the entire universe...

so, how do we do that? once the decision is made to do it, what then?

this next week we will begin to look at the various ways that you have blocked your own spirit off from it's connection to the spirit of life...we will be making a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves...we will be honestly looking at ourselves...

the completion of the third step is in the doing of the fourth...and so, onward we go...

continue reading over the actual fourth step directions in how it works...

the first thing that you need to begin doing is making a list of your resentments...

from as far back as you remember...write down everyone and everything that you have a resentment towards...it may be the church, your mom, your dad, the government, the judge, a friend, your dog for biting you when you were two...lol

feel the anger...this is a time when you can really be pissed off...let this anger fuel your list...be aware of how damn good it feels to be pissed off about some of these things...and write every one of them down...write down exactly what you think was done to you and why you are angry about it...no matter how irrelevant you might think it to be...put it all down on paper...

this is the first part of the fourth step, and you need to do this part before we go on to the next part of it...and there are several parts of it...lol...may as well enjoy this experience of expressing your anger...after this, self-righteous anger is impossible to justify! LOL...

missed spending the day with you...hope you are well...
