When they stopped working, I had to find another way to cope.

Acceptance
Quote
"Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it."
- Rabindranath Tagore
My Thoughts
The world is a dangerous place, and pain is part of life. I used drugs and alcohol to escape the world and avoid the pain. When they stopped working, I had to find another way to cope. I had to find a power greater than myself that could help me deal with life on life's terms.
Action for the Week
Today, I ask my Higher Power for the courage to deal with whatever comes my way.
Acceptance is the key 🙏
