a new step forward

yesterday i finally went for my first al-anon meeting.

though i had felt a fair amount of doubt, skepticism, reluctance so far.. i guess i was even pre-judging it perhaps.. the fact that it was on work days at a place i didn't know came to my rescue as a ready reason (won't call it excuse).

but the last few days were difficult.. i almost felt myself slipping into depression, feeling so much is not going right all around. and that was a sign to me that something had to be done, and fast. finally i made an exception and made time and went for the meeting.

glad i did go. and i wish to go back - for my own recovery and hopefully growth too.

a new journey has begun.

god, give me strength and direction.
