--Gustave Flaubert
Ain't that the truth!?!?!?!!! I have been on a roller coaster of emotion, really ever since I arrived in Bali. That's when the backache started and continued to worsen.
April is the 4th month, and in 12-Step programs, the focus is on Step 4: Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. I have done an inventory several times in the past, but in my morning quiet time, the suggestion came through that this might be a good time for another one. Immediately anger, resentment, disappointment and self-pity spilled onto the paper. Fleshing those out revealed inner gunk that I'm certainly not proud of, but that is the whole point of Step 4--to get that crap out. I will do more writing over the next couple of days, and then gratefully give it away via Step 5: Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. Well! Doesn't that sound like fun?!?! Actually doing Step 5 is a huge relief and release that I look forward to.
More shall be revealed, no doubt,
Leta
