Sometimes I look around my life and am impatient abou the things I don't have. A better title, better salary, a relationship - they all seem like missing pieces of this larger picture of a life I am supposed to be living.
I have to keep on reminding myself that my higher power has a greater plan for me. Twists, turns, complications - as frustrating as they are, are a part of me following the path that my higher power has set out for me.
At least that's what I am told to believe. It's tough to practice the third step in full faith that things are going to turn out alright. In fact, if I hadn't seen it in action I be highly skeptical of any realistic outcome.
I have to keep reminding myself - my higher powers' will, not my own. I have to step back and leave it up to this greater plan. It's scary, it's not natural for me but it's important nonetheless.
