Day 569

Good morning!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  One of my problems, or character defects, is thinking I can handle all my own problems.  I like to be in control.  Giving God control was kind of hard, and still is kind of hard for me to do on a day to day basis, but I know if I do this it makes my day easier. Sometimes it's easy to do, but sometimes it is difficult. Somtimes, I give my troubles to God, but then quickly take them on for me to worry about.  For one, it give me something to do, and two, I guess I just like the stress.  I don't know.  I got my Bachelor's degree, because I wanted to be able to take care of myself.  Not that I didn't need a man, but it's that control thing again.  I have to have control.  I need to learn to let go of the reigns a little more, even in my daily life.  So there is another thing for me to work on.  :)  Well, that's all for today!  Have a great one!
