SEPTEMBER 29 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "No entangling alliances"
from A Day at a Time Reflections Hosted by James H
In our first weeks or months in Gamblers Anonymous, our shaky emotional condition sometimes affects our feelings toward old friends and family. For many of us, these relationships heal quickly in the initial stages of our recovery. For others, a time of "touchiness" seems to persist; now that we're no longer gambling compulsively, we have to sort out our feelings about spouses, children, relatives, employers, fellow workers, and even neighbors. Experience in the GA Program over the years teaches us that we should avoid making important decisions early in our recovery, especially emotion-charged decisions about people. Am I becoming better equipped to relate maturely to other people? Today I Pray … May God help me through the edginess, the confusion of re-feeling and re-thinking my relationships, the getting it all together stages of my recovery. May I not rush into new relationships or new situations that demand an investment of my emotions - not yet. Today I Will Remember … No entangling alliances too soon.
