"Anxiety is the price we pay for playing God." - Jim T.
TURN IT OVERWhenever I let go of anything important in my life, I left claw
marks. The concept of turning it over was far fetched for this
control freak. I needed to practice letting go. It helped me when
it was suggested to get a God box; just a small box that I was to
put my troubles in for my God to take care of. I was to write
down all of the issues and concerns in my life and put them in
the God box. After they were in the box, I was to go about my day
doing the next right thing not worrying about them. That
sounded easy. The problem was the committee in my head was still
figuring out what God needed to do. I was grateful for the
serenity prayer. It gave me brief moments of sanity in those
early days, and still does today. I learned to let go a little.
My obsessive personality was slowly learning a new way of life
based on faith.
“When you become good at the art of letting sufferings go, then
you'll come to realize what you were dragging around with you.
And for that, no one else other than you was responsible." -
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
