"The gift of mental sobriety which is mine for the taking." (ODAT)
What is mental drunkenness?
For me:
- The role of Lord High Commander
- The role of Captain of Knowing Things
- Fantasizing about changing the world
- ... or some part thereof
- Armchair (or actual) crusades
- Resignation
- Grumbling
- Cynicism
- Gloom
- Any focus on matters outside my hula hoop
- Distrust of the programme
- Distrust of God
What is mental sobriety?
For me:
- The role of servant
- Focusing on the relationship with God
- ... so I am changed
- Leaving them all be
- Whilst maintaining intact boundaries
- Gratitude
- Lightness
- Ease
- Trusting the programme
- Trusting God
