THINKING:
~
Many of us have had our thinking clouded by denial. Some of us
have even lost faith in ourselves because we've spent a degree of
time in denial. But losing faith in our thinking isn't going to help us.
Denial, the shock-absorber for the soul, protects us until we are
equipped to cope with reality.
Clear thinking and recovery don't mean we will never resort to
denial. Denial is the first step toward acceptance, and for most of
our life, we will be striving to accept something.
Clear thinking means we don't allow ourselves to become immersed
in negativity or unrealistic expectations. We stay connected to other
recovering people. We go to our meetings, where peace of mind and
realistic support are available. We work the Steps, pray, and
meditate.
We keep our thinking on track by asking our Higher Power to help us
think clearly – not by expecting Him, or someone else, to do our
thinking for us.
