MY FIRST CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below.
With tiny lights, like Heaven’s stars,
reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
please wipe away the tear.
For I am spending Christmas with
Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
But the sounds of music can’t compare
with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
the joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description,
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart.
But I am not so far away,
we really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
you know I hold you dear
And be glad I’m spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I sent you each a special gift,
from my Heavenly home above.
I sent you each a memory
of my undying Love

If One Day..
If one day you feel like crying...
Call me.
I don't promise that I'll make you laugh,
But I can cry with you.
If one day you want to run away-
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you to stop...
But I can run with you.
If one day you don't want to listen to anyone...
Call me.
I promise to be there for you.
And I promise to be very quiet.
But if one day you call...
And there is no answer...
Come fast to see me.
Maybe I need you.
If I ever ignored you.
I'm Sorry...
If I ever made you feel bad or put you down.
I'm Sorry...
If I ever thought I was bigger,
or better than you.
I Luv You...
Don't ever forget that!
Through bad times
and good,
I'll always be here for you.
I am Sorry...
For everything wrong I've ever done.
I'm writing this because
what if tomorrow never comes?
What if I never get to say good-bye
or give you a BIG hug?
What if I never get to say I'm sorry,
or I love you?
Because what if tomorrow never comes?
I LOVE YOU!
People who can be happy and whole when alone are best prepared for being with others. If we need relationships in order to feel worthwhile and complete and special, that's the same as drinking or drugging to feel worthwhile.
Helping ourselves naturally feel good can be hard work. It's easier to create false feelings of self-esteem by attaching ourselves to a substance or another person. But once we've created our own feelings of worth, we can sit back and enjoy intimate relationships without fear of being "discovered," abandoned, or lost in the relationship. These fears can cripple us in our recovery and destroy the very thing we're trying to achieve: satisfying intimate relationships.
If we were giving a fine old piece of silver, we would first polish away the tarnish.
In recovery we are polishing ourselves by caring for all parts of ourselves-
body, mind and spirit.
Soon we can offer ourselves to another as the fine and valuable people we are.
Today let me enjoy my relationship with myself.

"I'm not responsible for my feelings-
only for what I do with them"
-Dr. Ceophus Martin-
Most feelings are unbidden, mysterious, and nebulous. We don't make a deliberate decision to call up one feeling or another. Feelings simply crop up into consciousness without our permission. For no apparent reason, we may again feel the paralyzing fear of abandonment or a terrifying sense of isolation. Such emotions may come on us with the power to make us feel invisible in a world of real people and things
The most trivial word, image, or even smell can activate the deeply hidden triggers of our feelings. We can't control the triggers, but we can control what we do with our feelings. Emotional management is learned, not inborn. Positive action is, was, and always will be the best remedy for wayward feelings. And consistent, positive action is the very definition of competent emotional management.
Now that I'm learning to act instead of react,
bursts of negative feelings gives me less trouble
than they once did.
