I like what you wrote here a lot (and thanks for writing something similar in the comments in my blog). For me, I am learning that it is ok to allow myself to feel anger, and that does not mean I have to have a resulting action from the feelings. What I was doing in the past was not allowing the feeling out of fear of what I might <I>do</I> as a result, that I might not be able to control the anger or ... I didn't know. I was frightened and ill-equipped. But the anger was leaking out in all kinds of terrible ways. I guess my point was that so many people were very vocal about interpreting that part of the literature as DO NOT FEEL ANGER, and told me as much, with much finger wagging and dire warnings of relapse.<BR/><BR/>Great blog. I need to spend more time here. I'm definitely a neophyte, but I'm eager to learn from those who have been blogging and sober longer.<BR/><BR/>~JudithJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354890444410748967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-61928434224519763642007-02-06T22:06:00.000-05:002007-02-06T22:06:00.000-05:00ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha . 2 inches. ha ha ha ha ...ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha . 2 inches. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha .Mary Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08156474205414127488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-17923268009596182832007-02-06T21:47:00.000-05:002007-02-06T21:47:00.000-05:00Some nice nuggets, soberman.Some nice nuggets, soberman.dAAvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10378341182741173178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21551598.post-710093954387920932007-02-06T19:41:00.000-05:002007-02-06T19:41:00.000-05:00I agreed with Shannon above.

It's better to tuff it out and take our lumps"<br /><br />I dont like to take my lumps, but I know its better for me to deal with why I am bothered, and what it effects in me, then reacting... and making more of a mess, only to follow up with guilt and remorse of how I reacted... make sense...?? thanks for reminding me of this... something I tend to forget.. NO MATTER how well I know, you know? <br /><br />anywhoo.. I am excited for you to get snow... bundle up and have fun with wife, Ian and Cosmo!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07781628960161310563noreply@blogger.com
