Had my counseling appointment.
My counselor said I was a very bright, articulate man who knows all the answers, knows what he must do …. but … (here it comes I thought) what can we do to move it from your head to your heart?
She is right. Recovery is not an exam I study for, it is a way of life.
It reminds me of a Winnie the Pooh comic when Piglet asks Pooh, “How do you spell love?” and Pooh replied “You don’t spell it, you feel it.”
What can I do … I don’t know.
Allowing myself to feel fully is a frightening prospect.
