I have learned there is no right answers. NONE! Because we will never know what would have happened had we taken a different path or made a different decision. Because (I believe) if we change one thing it causes everything else to change. For example...If you were going to pick dog number 8 to win the race and chose 4 instead and 8 won, well had you chose 8 he probably wouldn't have won. You get my point. We will never know how things would have played out had we done things differently. In this case you would have had to "follow your instincts".
Following your head will get you in trouble too. This is where we OVER analyze everything. Like there is a right or wrong answer to everything. And there is just NOT! We will second guess ourselves and kick our own asses if things don't work out right after all our carefully calculated decisions to take that other job or sell our house OR trade in our cars! I love my KIA and don't regret it for a second :) It makes me smile and that is the point.
So I think the answer really is to not worry so much about whats right and wrong but enjoy the moment you are happy you made that decision. Hell if it don't work out kick yourself then! But don't spend all your time wondering and worrying about your judgment. We shouldn't be so hard on ourselves. Don't worry about the destination and enjoy the ride. If you don't like the destination once you get there you can keep going and CHANGE IT!
In the long run I think nothing really matters except where our heart is in this life. This is all just stuff!

And I believe we are all here for each other. What other reason could there be? I mean really? To save the freagin' trees?? Really? Really? Help someone today. Smile at someone. Do something you wouldn't normally do (something nice) I don't mean rob a bank!! Things can always be worse. So freagin' CHEER UP. And make a decision. Wrong or right. JUST DO IT. My friend says if you don't know what to do, don't do anything...I don't know. Seems like you'd always be sitting in the same place if you did nothing. I say...your gonna be doing something anyway....so DO SOMETHING :)
Which brings me to the "Yellow brick road". Where the hell is that road? AND who the hell is the wizard?
i really like this one and do believe that as long as were truly living what were taught in our program of recovery that others will see how happy we are and want to help others as they see how we do just by watching us. since ive been sober (this time around) theres not much that can bring me down and i think thats cause i keep walking in the spirit of this program
