Some thoughts about recovery. * Take what you like and leave the rest.
For a while, we may need to back off from giving as we learn todiscern the difference between healthy giving and caretaking.
To be healthy, to do our part in this spiritual way of life, to be partof the endless cycle of the Universe, we need to give and receive.
Giving is a fine-lined behavior each of us must seek to understandfor ourselves. It is giving that feels good and does not leave usfeeling victimized.
It is giving based on a desire to do it rather than from a sense ofguilt, pity, shame, or obligation.
It is giving with no strings attached. Or it is giving based on aclean, direct contract.
Whether it is giving of our time, efforts, energy, comfort,nurturing, money, or ourselves, it is giving that we can afford.
We can learn to give in healthy ways; we can learn to give in love.We need to keep an eye on our giving, to make sure it has notcrossed the line into caretaking. But we need to learn to give inways that work for us and others.
