Breaking Free [quote] Allow yourself to see just how much of your energy, your spirit, is invested in the past-in anger, resentment, remorse, guilt or in a need to control or in fear about the future. [/quote] Nice post. Now wave the magic wand and make it all go away. Please??

Very powerful post BF....definately food for thought...Thank you for sharing it with us... [quote] "[font=Comic Sans MS]The point is, however, that it happened in the past and, if you're still invested in the negativity of that memory - still holding on to the anger, guilt, remorse, or the hurt - your energy isn't available for living now.

[quote]The secret lies in recognizing what you're holding onto, and letting go - letting it float away in life's current, no less real, but no longer in your focus.[/quote]Because at first we must focus so closely on separating ourselves from it, we often end up inadvertently mourning the loss of our addiction instead of celebrating the gaining of life and freedom. Learning early in our quits to shift our focus from the loss to the gain is essential to our success. Great post, Breaking Free.

Breaking, Thanks for sharing! There are a lot of great points here and we can all learn from another's point of view. The important thing is we take in what we need and take heed of what we are trying to accomplish. Everyway to quit is the right way! Keep Strong, Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
