"If you are hysterical, it's
historical."--Unknown
I first heard this line from my sponsor, and it has resonated with
me for the last couple of years. It's a powerful, yet simple statement. It
provides a framework for our, sometimes immoderate and dramatic, viewpoints of
the world.
How many of us flare up at some off the wall comment that a
coworker, spouse, or a friends says in passing? Do you know why? How many of us
get bent out of shape while waiting for the light to turn green? Ever ask yourself
what that means?
Take the time today to figure out what's underneath your hysterics
and maybe talk with your sponsor, therapist, or close friend and ask them for
help while you search the depths of your mind to explore the historical
implications that influence your acting out.
Stay safe, sane and sober!
