The Way Out...
The Fox And The Cat
One day a fox and a cat were discussing the methods they used to avoid their enemies. "I have many clever ways to escape," bragged the fox. "I only have one," replied the cat.
Just then they heard a pack of hounds headed their way. The cat immediately took to his best known, life saving, evasive action & s**mpered up a nearby tree. But the fox was frozen, lost deep in his thoughts. He considered digging a hole. He surmised that he could jump into the pond and swiftly swim to safety. He figured he was so quick & smart on his feet, he could easily create a very confusing trail for the hounds to follow. As the fox continued his internal debate, he remained immobilized. And so, due to his lack of action, the hounds easily caught him.
The Moral of the story: Better to have one safe way & use it, than a hundred unproven ones.
How many times in the past did you strive to convince yourself that you did not have a problem ? Or, having admitted a problem, thought : it's a problem I can handle ...... myself. And yet no amount of thought or rationalization saved you from your problem ....... or it's consequences. Most problems requires some type of action in order to reach a solution. And this program is your only safe way to escape the ravages caused by addiction.
Today I will be like the cat, which used one sure way to ensure it's life.
