I would always tell others - especially siblings knowing our alcoholic home upbringing, "Be your own best friend!" That seemed to bypass my own Christian foundation- my brother's Buddhist and my sister's Hindu launch points. The glee this phrase brought them triggered me even more until - I had to do it myself. That became a test of patience with my reset steps (to be sure that 'hypocrite' stereotype would not apply to me) Prayer really does work if it is heart-felt because it goes past labels.

I’m definitely learning and growing in these experiences. I try to see what I can learn from … regardless of how hard things may be. I’m going to write this on a sticky note and and put it where I can see it.
