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. |

You're right --- that's all ANY of us can do. Take it one day at a time, and do the next right thing.
 Tomorrow isn't promised, and yesterday is gone. Yes, it can be hard to live in today, but that's all we have! And for me, it's easier to just live in today. I can go pretty whacky if I start living in tomorrow! I used to do that before I joined AA, and it got me into a lot of trouble.  Plus I dwelled in yesterday alot too, and boy that's a bad thing to do. My head is a bad neighborhood, and i shouldn't go in there alone! LOLSo today is where I'll stay. Usually it's pretty good, although sometimes it can be tough. But with the help of my Higher Power, I'll be okay. And you will too. God bless. Hugs, Lee
