One time I went to Ohio to see Joe. (You remember my brother, Joe, right?)
When I got home, my house was a little unsettled and I didn't have any groceries. I was feeling too lazy to go shopping, so I went to my freezer to see what was in there.
I found some leftover takeout I'd frozen before I left town. But then I found this other
thing...
I thawed it out and had it for lunch today. And it was this most delicious chicken and garbanzo beans and sundried tomatoes and onions... just some amazing creamy delicious dish.
I have no idea when I made it. I have no idea where I got the recipe. But I know I made it because it was in my Tupperware dish.
And I was like, "Wow, I was really on point with that
particular dish."
Then I started asking myself... what if my brain is my freezer?
What else is going on inside there that I forgot I had? What lessons are in there that I created and stored away? What tools did I develop during tough times and just... put away for later?
, here's what hit
me...
Even when I don't remember making that meal... even when I had no idea what my state of mind was... I still created something wonderful and stored it away for when I needed it.
And that's exactly what we do in recovery.
We learn things. We develop skills. We create coping strategies and boundary techniques and crisis intervention methods...
And sometimes we forget we even have them.
But they're there. Stored away. Ready when we need them.
