The more comfortable we are with the knowledge that each
if us has a unique journey to make, the easier it is to
let other people live their own lives. When family members
are in trouble with alcohol or other drugs, it's terribly
difficult to let them have their own journey. Because we
love them, we feel compelled to help them get clean and
sober, In reality, all we can do is pray for their safety
and well being. Their recovery is up to them and their
Higher Power.
For some of us it's a leap of faith to believe there
really is a Divine plan of which we are all a part. And
perhaps it's not even necessary to believe. But we'll find
the hours of every day gentler if we accept that a Higher
Power is watching over all of us.
Being able to let others live and learn their own lessons
is one of our lessons. The more we master it, the more
peaceful we'll be.
I have enough to do just living my life today. I can let
others do what they must.
