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.
