Today, when things don't happen according to my schedule, I can accept that there may be a reason and I can learn to adjust to what is.
Ever felt like you're stuck in a rut, waiting for life to change? In this episode of 'Al-Anon Reading', Joy de Leon dives into the wisdom of Al-Anon's Courage to Change, reflecting on the often-overlooked art of waiting and acceptance. Joy opens up about her own struggles with feeling like her life was on hold and her initial urge to force change.
Through her journey, she discovered that not all changes are within our control and sometimes, the best action is no action at all. Her sponsor's advice, 'Don't just do something. Sit there', became a guiding principle. This episode resonates deeply with anyone in recovery who is used to constantly being in motion. Joy's reflections remind us that waiting doesn't mean wasting time. She emphasizes that even in stillness, there are valuable lessons to be learned.
By accepting life's natural pace, we can find contentment and wisdom in moments of patience and non-action. Joy's insights are a powerful reminder that life invites us to live fully every day, even when we're simply waiting. Tune in to discover how embracing patience and acceptance can be transformative on your recovery journey.
