Y is for Yellow. It is the color of caution. Reality can suck sometimes and we want to ignore it, but it generally paints a true picture of what we need for our recovery each day. We can develop tunnel vision, turn blind eyes, have selective hearing, and all manner of things to take us out of today and not living in the moment.
I have gained weight here and told a psw (personal support worker) today that I felt like a fat cow.

Z is for Zest. Have you got some zest for living? Maybe we need to do like they say about the onion, peel off the outer layers to find what is underneath. Zest comes in many flavours, Blood orange for stop, lime for go, and lemon for caution. Take away the negativity to make room for the positive in your life. Don't look at what you don't have, look at what you do have.

X is for eXtreme. We don't have to go into eXtremes, that is part of our addiction. We need to learn to balance our life, and not go into those eXtreme highs and lows.

Y is for Yield. Yield not into temptation. Turn things over to your HP, He will see you through. Let go of what no longer serves you and make room for new things in your life. Don't let those old tapes get in the way.

Z is for Zebra. We tend to look at things as black and white We forget that thanks to recovery, there are shades of gray. It doesn't have to be either/or, there is compromise and communication to meet on a middle ground.
