    SCARED???

    So, I was reading posts about how many of us are so scared and confused when we first come to MWO. And I was thinking to myself...what am I REALLY scared of?

    Am I scared I won't be the life of the party?
    Am I scared no one will think I am fun and witty and smart?
    Am I scared I won't be the person everyone comes to to listen to their problems?
    Am I scared that I won't be the person that always says yes?

    OR....

    Am I scared I will not remember my daughters' phone calls?
    Am I scared that I will go to work hungover?
    Am I scared I will not be sober enough to make love to my husband?
    Am I scared that I will be too drunk to drive to the hospital when my dad has another heart attack?
    Am I scared I will not remember my best friend crying to me about her husband's affair?
    Am I scared I won't fall fall down the stairs after a night of drinking?
    Am I scared that I will be too drunk to help anyone in need?
    Am I scared that I am missing out on useless calories?
    Am I scared that I don't remember how I got to bed the night before?
    Am I scared about what my boss thinks of my behavior at a conference?
    Am I scared that my daughters avoid me?
    Am I scared that I am losing friends?
    Am I scared that I am lonely?
    Am I scared that I am doing a crappy job at work?
    Am I scared that my husband is afraid to leave me alone?
    Am I scared that I miss out on so much because I am passed out.?

    OKAY...ENOUGH OF BEING SCARED. Scared is:


    S=sad
    C=confused
    A= agitated
    R=resentful
    E=embarassed
    D=disappointed

    Done with that shit!

          GREAT post, upnorth!

          This was one of my "quotes of the day" today:

          "Have no fear. Joy--radiant Joy must be yours. Change disappointment to Joy."

          I kept thinking about that one. "Radiant Joy" - WOW, wonder what that is???

          ...and that you can change Disappointment to Joy is an amazing thought!

                UNG - Thank you. I am just at the stage of being/doing a lot of the negative things you posted. I'm so grateful I've acknowledged which way I was going and put myself into reverse. I'll keep your post as a reminder.
