When Our Heart Is Broken, We Can't

Gratitude Unlocks The Fullness Of Life. It Turns What We Have Into Enough, And More. It Turns Denial Into Acceptance, Chaos To Order, Confusion To Clarity. It Can Turn A Meal Into A Feast, A House Into A Home, A Stranger Into A Friend. It Turns Problems Into Gifts, Failures Into Successes, The Unexpected Into Perfect Timing, And Mistakes Into Important Events. It Can Turn An Existence Into A Real Life, And Disconnected Situations Into Important And Beneficial Lessons. Gratitude Makes Sense Of Our Past, Brings Peace For Today, And Creates A Vision For Tomorrow. Gratitude Makes Things Right.

Today I Will Practice Healthy Giving, Understanding That Caretaking And Compulsive Giving Don't Work. I Choose What I Want To Give, To Whom, When, And How Much. It Takes Time To Learn How To Give In Healthy Ways. It Takes Time To Learn To Receive. Balance Will Come.

Today I Will Stop Trying To Control My Relationships. I Will Participate At A Reasonable Level And Let The Other Person Do The Same. I Can Let Go, Knowing That The Relationship Will Find Its Own Life-or Not-and That I Don't Have To Do All The Work, Only My Share.

When It's Too Difficult To Keep Swimming, Float.

Anger Is A Warning Signal. It Points To Problems.
