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.
