“Al-Anon runs—like the little wheel in the old song—by the grace of God.” (ODAT, 21 July)
God is the source of all power. I’m not a real power source.
I do not need to power through the day. It is hard to say what that means
literally or concretely, but I know the feeling. There’s a vast difference in
feeling between allowing oneself to be carried, buoyed, from moment to moment,
versus feeling as though one is having to march or push or jostle or force.
