“… no situation is really hopeless.” – AlAnon Suggested Welcome

There usually comes a point in everybody’s life where we hit a wall. Something happens that seems so overwhelmingly difficult, that we think perhaps we’ll never get through it. Yet, when we reflect – in retrospect – upon our past struggles, we always got through them – and often things got even better. So from now on when I run into a problem I’ll say “Hello Problem. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to grow and triumph over this difficulty.” Then I’ll walk through to the other side, where I’ll be even stronger emotionally!” In this way, no matter what comes my way, ILML!
