BALANCE:



Strive for balanced expectations of others.

In the past, we may have tolerated too much or too little.

We may swing from tolerating abuse, mistreatment, and
deception to refusing to tolerate normal, human, imperfect
behaviors from people. Although it's preferable not to
remain in either extreme too long, that is how people change
– real people who struggle imperfectly toward better lives,
improved relationships, and more effective relationship
behaviors.

But if we are open to ourselves and to the recovery process,
we will, at some time, begin another transition: it becomes
time to move away from extremes, toward balance.

We can trust ourselves and the recovery process to bring us
to a balanced place of tolerance, giving, understanding and
expectations – of ourselves and others.

We can each find our own path to balance as we begin and
continue recovery.
