When I was just starting my program I would write down things people said in meetings so I could remember them.
-”My solution to my unhappiness was to find someone who knew how to live and do what ever he said.”
-When I am able to take care of myself around others, it helps me to accept them just as they are.
-”Being crazy takes so much freaking work.”
-Detach any way you can, short of murder.
-”When am I going to start living my life?”
-Feeling that I was different from other people is something I do to keep from connecting.
-Today is really OK. I just don’t like it.
-After years of chaos, I discovered I had undervalued boredom.
-Sometimes when I feel distressed, I feel I have a feeling of being trapped in my pain forever. That feeling is normal and I accept it. However, I know it is just a feeling. It is not fact.
-It is OK to look at the past, but it destructive for me to stare at it.
