Have You? Noticed...
Have you noticed?, or is it Just Me... The seasons changing oh so slightly.... Now here it is around 5:30 at night... The sun was gone there was no light..... Haven't you noticed, the birds singing... Or is that just my ears ringing..... Have you not seen the buds on the trees... And the squirrels we can even see..... We look again and what can we see... The land, the traffic running about oh so free..... Now here it is about 6:30 at night... There OVER THERE,...a glimpse at the moon light..... So now it's time to set back and wait... It will be spring that the sunset won't be till eight..... Written by: Victor W. Copyright, no copy without written permissions

How aware are you? Here is another tip on "getting control" from Higher Awareness.
The shocking fact is that most of us are unconscious of 80% of what we do, think and say. WE'RE NOT AWARE of our defenses, our emotional reactions, our beliefs and deep-seated habits. Of our fears, negative self-talk and judgments. Why is this so important? Because THESE UNCONSCIOUS FORCES ARE RUNNING OUR LIVES! When we're not aware, we stay stuck in patterns that limit our ability to enjoy life. In fact, we stay stuck in patterns that cause us pain. Without awareness, we don't know how to think, create, love and reap the bounty of our world. If you want to gain more control in your life, you will need to cultivate greater awareness. It's the MOST POWERFUL RESOURCE we have to effect change. To be aware, we must STOP AND PAY ATTENTION. We must pull back our perspective to impartially observe what we are doing, feeling and thinking and what is going on around us. This detachment allows us to recognize our automatic patterns and reactions. And new insights let us break free of our patterns and defences. This allows us to choose something different for ourselves, if we want. If we are unconscious, our future is created from our past, through patterns in our subconscious. If we are aware and conscious, our future is created anew in each moment. Do you want to go through life on auto-pilot, letting old tapes dictate how you act? Or do you want to truly live life by clearly seeing the choices before you, and claiming your power to choose what you most want? It's up to you. "To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom, one must observe." -- Marilyn vos Savant From Higher Awareness - used with permission ======================================= As I have grown in recovery I have found that there have been stages where I seemed to get a shot of awareness, and I have to look at things, and do something about them. If I don't then I become uncomfortable in my own skin, and I can end up substituting other "things" and start looking for something or someone outside of myself to make me feel better. For me, my conscious contact with my Higher Power is a connection I can not afford to lose or even slacken even a little bit. My disease is cunning, baffling and powerful and it just seems to be waiting for that moment that it can sneak back into my life. I don't have to physically pick up to have a relapse. You are missed Vic, hope you don't mind me carrying on your message.
