Have you put any limit on your physical, emotional or spiritual growth and why?
The only limits that can be put on my physical, emotional or spiritual growth are put there by me. I can see the vastness of my recovery being boundless and therefore, choose to have no limits.
I feel such warmth and excitement when I think about where my recovery may take me. It's because of two things: 1.) God (HP) being by my side - knowing he's with me every step of the way and 2.) looking back to see how far I've come.
Through prayer and meditation, God (HP) has given me so many exciting ideas for my future; things I haven't done yet, things I've never dreamed of doing and some I've started to implement. My life is exciting and full today. If anyone told me this a year ago, I would have laughed.
Even so, there are some changes I still need to make, things I need to let go of - material items and character defects. (I hear about the work I need to do in my meditations).
Change is hard for me! Sometimes I kick, scream, and pout. I still do the work because I know the end result is where I crave to be. I refuse to go back to the pain I came in with. As hard as it is, the freedom I feel when I do is indescribable. It's almost like losing another pound of weight.
Additionally, my fear of not having enough continues to lessen. I'm learning I need to cling to God (HP)- which actually happens the more I let go of the material world.
The more I let go, the more I get - one of the 12 Step paradoxes!
