I'm not helpless....

I have

come

to realize

-a lot

of people

in 12-step

groups expect

-you to

come to

them

-helpless...

Now I

am not

saying

-all of

them are

like that...

I can

feel helpless

-however I

am not

going to

show it...

I will

share the

fact

-when I

feel safe...

I am

very self

determined

-one is

supposed to

bend

-some how

show powerlessness...

I know

all power

comes from

God

-and God

fills me

with this

-because I

ask God

to...

I do

not show

-humility

-I do

try to

be real...

So I

have been

told I

come off

as superficial

-and people

don't approach

me

-unless they

know me

-or see

with their

hearts...

There is always Hope!  I thank God that I have friends & supports outside the 12-step programs, otherwise I would feel very lonely-these groups are supposed to be all about "we", "you are no longer alone"....I have connected to couple of people & with God's help, I will make more & stronger ones.

You Are Worth So Much!

God Bless
