I have been doing a great deal of reflection lately both because I have made so much progress and because I met my most recent qualifier on June 17 of last year. Here are some of the thoughts that have arisen:
1. NEVER, EVER make someone your Higher Power. My Higher Power is God and I realize that I have been making men I have been obsessed with my Higher Power. Very dangerous.
2. Never define yourself solely by the presence of others in your life. Your romantic interests are supposed to be additions to your life, not the reason you live.
3. Never settle for crumbs of attention. If someone cannot give themselves fully to YOU then they aren't worth your time.
4. Never let others dictate your reality, only you are able to effectively do this.
5. Never think that you can truly love another before you love yourself. You can't.
6. If you begin to see red flags with someone you are dating, end it. Immediately. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. Just be done.
7. If someone shows you how they feel about you, believe them. (See number #6 above.)
8. If you are ever tempted to disregard your morals or values to please someone else, please don't do it. I guarantee that you will regret it in the future.
9. Always have patience. If you give something enough time, it will start to work out!
