The first step to recovery is the admission/ realization that you do have a problem. The next step is a plan, a rough financial plan with lots of room to still play and have some fun, because after all money is a means not an end in itself. Good Luck.
How many people are attracted to their dates because they like to fix things?
I admit I used to be like this. The hard luck story always made me feel like the Knight in shining armor rushing in to save the day. And then, I learned. I can't change other people's Karma, only they can. And further, I learned I needed to change this Karmic drive to be needed in some way...
How many people have experienced this? Are you still like this? What are you doing to change it?[/quote
Well, vulnerability and flaws are sometimes attractive....it's what makes us human and unique. I may find that endearing, but not necessarily because I want to help or change him.....I have no difficulty accepting and respecting others as they are......perfectly themselves....
Perhaps it's because we like feeling a sense of protection, of belonging, of 'permanency', of being valued, cherished and respected, and man values his sense of freedom and individuality more, although women have become just as bad....
You faith in God and in Jesus has given you the strength and wisdom to avoid disaster; in being obedient you have gained much more than you will ever realize perhaps.....it has saved you and it will carry you through the hard trials you may face every now and then.
Self-awareness is a precious gift we can give ourselves, being introspective, and trying to better understand ourselves. Life is a continuum in constant movement and so are we; do I know who I am? It's so hard to pinpoint it exactly.....but I no doubt know who I'm not. Individuality is very high on my list only because I feel one should never define himself to fit a mold or an expectation.....then one may easily becomes lost in translation. What makes us beautiful and strong and unique is accepting and rejoicing in who we are; let's leave protocol and pretenses at the door.
