Damn Martin, bringing the fire with this essay. Thirty one years ago, I started on a journey of personal responsibility for my thoughts and feelings which led to how I reacted to life. People forget that almost every thing we do in a day is a choice. Love, hate, compassion, indifference, peace, serenity and tranquility. Feed your good characteristics and weed out the bad ones. Quackgrass is the hardest weed to extricate because the
rhizomes of this weed grow underground, for up to 6ft from the original plant.
Absolutely. The realization that I had control over my reactions threw open a part of my humanity that was laying dormant. The way my sponsor poked and prodded me with love, compassion and accountability, changed everything.

Love this, Deb! We don't control much in life, except our reactions, right?
Absolutely. The realization that I had control over my reactions threw open a part of my humanity that was laying dormant. The way my sponsor poked and prodded me with love, compassion and accountability, changed everything.
I feel like that's freedom, in a nutshell.
