Me and my Shadow

WHOA what a meeting today.   A beautiful meeting that started with reading Step 3 out of the 12 and 12.

It prompted a great discussion about making THAT decision and also about our various conceptions of God, however you choose to define that world.

I had an amazing moment when I was recalling the day I did my third step with my sponsor...and then I had another scene shoot through my head.  The movie Peter Pan. Peter chasing that shadow. Trying to connect with it, using tools that weren't working.

Then he meets Wendy, who calmly sits Peter down then sews them together. 
My sponsor is Wendy and the third step is the needle and thread.  My higher power, God is the shadow.

It's all about the willingness and trust - I wake every morning hand in hand with my God and we face each day together.
I was also reminded of one of the affirmations from IntenSati:
"Every day in a very true way, I co-create my reality"

Co-Create to me means:  I LISTEN to God's will or plan and then I DO the work that is asked.

  1. I like the concept of co-creating. I means I have faith and trust in another and am never alone. What a gift. (I loved Peter Pan as a kid!)
