…sorry for butting in here, but I agree that “Recovery” is all about surrender and giving up control. Gambling, for a CG , ( in my experience) involves control at every level. When we admit defeat, we reach a place where we need to un- cover, discover, recover and re discover……..
I don’t think surrender is a once off experience. I think for all of us CG and Non CG alike, it’s a daily process. Like peeling an onion. Bit by bit we learn to drop our expectations, our falsehoods and our illusions. Until we reach a place called Freedom.
Only then will we leave Slavery behind and fall into …..Awareness.
Therein lies freedom .
“What I am aware of , I am in control of: What I am not aware of is in control of me”!
Awareness, awareness, awareness!
Interesting posts!
