When I got up this morning, I didn't know what the new day would bring with it. Well, so far, I have heard from people in other countries, sent mail to Kansas, eaten cookies with ingredients from who knows where. I have intereacted with members of my family, my counselor, the clerk at walgreens, the clerk at the bank, the kind woman who held the door for me at the post office. Do I know what will happen to me tonight? I have an idea, but I don't know exactly.
So what is my point? My point is I am a person, one of lots in my world, trying to do the best I can with what I have, which is bipolar disorder. I try to do get throught each day one at at time. That's all I can do. That's the best I can do. So after I finish filling this out and going through my mail, I'm going to do my modd chart, do my bipolar homework, take my medicine, and spend some time with my family. To borrow from AA, I'll do the next right thing. That's all I can do. Just be me, do the next right thing, and keep praying that God will help me through the day.
