from "The Grapevine"s  'i-say':


A sure path to frustration is to always expect perfection from imperfect people.

So true!  Expectations are resentments in advance....that is what one of the women in my group told me last night.


I also believe that is true when we put those expectations on ourselves.....we are not perfect.  Recovery is not an overnight thing.  I have to remember to be as patient with myself as I am with others.  Acceptance is the key in my opinion......easier said than done!


Thanks for this Amanda!
