I always wanted to run from reality, but that made me sicker and far worse than any reality could ever be.<BR/><BR/>Today, when I feel that desire to RUN which I sometimes do, I take ACTION, PRONTO! I call my sponsor, get to a meeting, read my affirmations, get with a sponsee, whatever.....get out of myself.<BR/><BR/>It works. Your desire to run will pass. I believe that.<BR/><BR/>Prayer GirlOne Prayer Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17455437909918314217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349731646274826596.post-5516200433978028922009-04-10T16:04:00.000-04:002009-04-10T16:04:00.000-04:00Oh sister, I am so with you on this one.

I would be lying if I told you it was all chocolate candy and flowers. This is what makes you strong. You are going to get through this with Jesus's help and all these awesome people who comment to you. They love you and they are rootin for ya.
