My 28th Sobriety Birthday

January 3, 2012 is going to mark my 28th Sobriety Birthday. I had posted an announcement on this page in July a few days before my belly button birthday (for those of you not in 12 step recovery, the belly button birthday refers to actual birthday while sobriety birthday is anniversary of sobriety date) - and that announcement is lower down on this page. I added an excerpt from a message I sent to my Yahoo mailing list on July 21st - sharing about what I felt while posting the announcement (great Joy) and also what I felt on the next day (pain and sadness and despair) as part of my ongoing assignment (not one I remember volunteering for) to role model what it is like to be an imperfect wounded human being on a Spiritual Path.

On December 23rd when I had already started the process of updating my web pages to commemorate my Sobriety birthday and to add a special Holiday Offers page to try to bring in some financial abundance here at the end of the year, I had a phone counseling session with a client in Norway. In the course of trying to explain to her how important it was for me to learn to be willing to accept that there was a Loving Divine Plan unfolding in my life no matter how awful and painful the outside circumstances were, I shared some of my story with her. I told her that I was sure when I published my book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls at the end of 1995 that it would become a best seller right away because there were so many people seeking answers - and the information in my book is the missing piece that people were looking for to achieve some spiritual integration and emotional balance, to understand this human experience so that they can forgive themselves and others and start finding some Joy in their lives. And what happened instead was that by 1999 I was homeless - which was a perfect part of The Plan and a wonderful opportunity for growth.

"The above quote from the personal journal I share in my Joy2MeU Journal is something I wrote in 1999 while I was homeless - something I talked about in the Newsletter portion of my January 2002 Update.

"I spent 6 months in 1999 being homeless. Not on the street homeless - I had an office for my computer - but crashing on someone's couch kind of homeless. The lessons in acceptance and patience and letting go that I learned during that time were sacred gifts. The level of faith that it forced me to access and practice, the depth to which I was forced to integrate my Spiritual belief system into my relationship with life, was a manifestation of Love from my Higher Power that I am now - and have been - reaping great benefits from." - January 2002 Update Newsletter: Part 1

Being homeless for that period of time - something that happened because I invested in starting this web site - was a perfect part of my lesson plan. It was an incredible opportunity to practice what I teach. To keep affirming that my path was unfolding perfectly even as the human part of me felt abandoned and betrayed. It was an invaluable opportunity - a sacred gift - to work on not buying into the polarized perspective of my ego programming that was trying to tell me I was being punished for doing something wrong because of the external conditions in my life.

The fact that other people were giving me the message that I was doing something wrong - were saying things like, "what did you do to cause this?" or "how are you blocking abundance in your life?" - was additional practice in saying, "I am not doing anything wrong, I didn't cause this, I am perfectly where I am supposed to be on my Spiritual path."

It was a very important part of my recovery to stand up for myself in response to people who were conveying those types of judgmental statements. That doesn't mean that I did not have some responsibility in creating whatever external condition those people were judging me for - or that I didn't have a lot of issues around abundance that I have been working through for years. We have been creating cause all of our lives - and what is manifesting in our life right now may be a result of the unconscious behavior of many years ago. In other words, someone who has been on a spiritual path for 10 years gets some kind of physical illness - that doesn't mean that their part in causing it happened since they started their spiritual awakening. It may be that many years of unconscious behavior have contributed to that condition - behaviors that we were powerless over in the years prior to recovery. So, when someone has a cold and you say, "well what are you doing to cause that?" - stop and think about the kind of message that conveys. It conveys a message that the other person is doing something wrong - that they are being punished. That is not a Loving message to convey. Why do it?" - Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in the Light Book 2: A Dysfunctional Relationship with Life Chapter 13: Changing the Music: Love instead of fear and shame (which is only available in subscription Dancing in Light section of site - which is available for a $20 donation below) quoted in The Law of Attraction - Misunderstood & Misinterpreted

I shared with her basically what I shared in this excerpt from my online book, how I told people that what was happening was a perfect part of my path - even though it was incredibly painful and felt terribly unfair and I didn't know why it was happening. And she asked me, if I could choose to do it all over and do it differently, would I. I got all choked up when I answered and told her "No" that I would not change any of it. That if my book had become a best seller right away, I would never have learned the lessons I have learned since then. I told her that my experience is that my Higher Power's plan for my life is always better than I could have even imagined - even though the details of how it is unfolding feels at times like I have screwed up and am being punished, feels like my Higher Power had abandoned and betrayed me. I told her that in early sobriety when I had hardly any money (working as a psych tech in the State Mental Hospital for $4.99 an hour - getting spit on and bit by patients and having to hold the legs of alcoholics in seizure because they were being given electro shock treatment) that it was a blessing - because I might not have stayed sober if I had had a lot of money.

It was a perfect discussion to have right at this time, to remind me of the perfect unfolding of the Divine Plan. So, even though I have had to keep asking for help to keep my book in print (as I did for the sixth printing that is almost finished as I announce below) and to keep my website going over the years - it has served the Cosmic Plan some how. And as I state in the message from July 21st that I posted below - even though it is very painful for me to have to ask for help, I know that the lesson I share just below about working the third step was an invaluable one on my path. And that it has been a gift to many people to see that I am willing to ask for help - because so many of us codependents think we have to do it all our self. We are never alone on this journey, but it sure feels like we are alone at times.

A thought occurred to me as I was finishing this on Christmas Day. I mention on the page that I am posting today commemorating my 28th Birthday - along with this page and the Holiday Offers page - that in the past year I passed 100,000 days clean and sober. The thought I had, was that I am sure that many more than 100,000 people have been asking for help, praying and begging for some guidance, when they put some search words into Goggle and discovered my website. So, I guess that is part of the balance in the Divine Plan - I ask for help and I also provide the answers when so many other people ask for help. I am very grateful for my 28 years in recovery - for this life adventure that I have been gifted with - even though I still need all the help I can get just to pay the rent. The Universe works in mysterious ways it's wonders to perform. I don't have to know why things are unfolding as they do - I just need to remind myself to have faith that there is a Loving Divine Plan unfolding, and Goddess Knows I have had ample evidence over the years to know that this is The Truth for me. ~ Robert, Christmas Day 2011

Working the Third Step

"When I was in treatment getting sober I was in a city I hadn't lived in for 20 years. I had no car and was going to be living with my brother who lived on the outskirts of the city when I got out of treatment. I was scared that I wasn't going to be able to make it to meetings and went in to talk to my counselor about it. He said, "You ask for rides." "Oh no," I said. "You don't understand I never ask anybody for anything." "Well," he said, "that is what working the third step is all about." "Asking for rides?!?!" I said incredulously.
I thought he was crazy. How can asking for a ride be working the third step?

Well, it is. I needed to learn to ask not only a God I didn't trust for help - but also to ask other people to help me. That was horrible for me. It seemed like such a huge risk. If I asked people for help that would give them a chance to reject me - and I had had enough rejection in my life, thank you very much!

There was a story that I heard around that time. It was about 2 guys who were arguing about rather there was a God or not.

The first one said, "Of course, there is a God. How can you say there is no God."
The second said, "I not only can say it - I can prove it."

"You can prove it?"

"Yes. Years ago I was in a small plane crash in the wilds of Alaska. I was the only survivor and I had a broken leg. There was nothing around for hundreds of miles, so it was only a question of rather I would freeze to death before something ate me. I prayed to God and said 'If there is a God please save me.' And God didn't do anything."

"What do you mean," the first man exclaimed. "You're here and alive aren't you."

"Oh, well some Eskimo came along and saved me. God didn't do anything."

The point: God works through people. We all have had Eskimos in our lives, angels disguised as people. We are not alone in this process - we can't do it alone.
So, I learned to ask for rides. What I know now is that the Universe always responds - just not very often in the way, or at the time I think it is necessary. I need to ask for help and then let go of rather the person I am asking can in fact help me. I need to take the risk and let go of the outcome. What I need will come from someplace. There is a verse in the bible that says: (paraphrased??)

Ask and ye shall receive.
Seek and ye shall find.
Knock and the door shall be opened.

ASK. By asking - either God or another person - I am setting energy in motion in the Universe. Once the energy is in motion it comes back to me at some time from some place. I have to put it out before it will come back. What I sow I reap. The Universes works on the principle of cause and effect. It is very important for me to get proactive in my own life by taking the risk of asking for help - and it is much easier when I can let go of my picture of how, and when, that help is going to manifest." - The Miracle of The Twelve Step Recovery Process: 1, 2, 3, and a 1, 2, 3 - The first three steps

"I freely share so much information on my site because . . . I believe it is my Karmic Mission in this lifetime. I want to share the Joyous message and the precious information that I have discovered - and it is what I need to do for my Recovery and Spiritual Path. It is not such a great strategy when it comes to finances however.;-) So Donations to the Cause / Love Offerings / Spiritual Tithes are always appreciated if you feel my sharing has helped you in your Healing / Recovery process and on your Spiritual Path. If my writing has helped you remember Truth that brings you some Joy and inner peace, and your Spirit moves you to send some Love back my way . . . . - Metaphysical Law: Giving and Receiving - Donations to the Cause / Love Offerings / Spiritual Tithes

Donations to the Cause / Love Offerings / Spiritual Tithes

"The Metaphysical Law of Karma - of cause and effect / giving and receiving / what you sow you reap - is what governs this life experience we are having. Giving and receiving are two parts of one dynamic - like breathing. As a friend of mine who is a New Thought minister says, "to say giving is more Blessed than receiving is like saying exhaling is more Blessed than inhaling." Just as breath needs to flow in and out, so too does energy need to flow . . ." - Metaphysical Law: Giving and Receiving

My way in the past of keeping the energy flowing - by sending some Love energy and healing information back your way - has been to gift subscriptions to Dancing in the Light and to the Joy2MeU Journal for donations of a certain amount. As of September 2011 I am also offering a free download of the digitally remastered MP3 files of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls "An audio Spiritual Experience": the download of the recording of my Intensive Training Day; a copy of my new book Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light Book 1 Empowerment, Freedom, and Inner Peace through Inner Child Healing; and
and also a pdf e-book version of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls. I want the energy to flow both ways this year also - so will make the following donations to your cause in return for your donation to the Joy2MeU cause.

Anyone who makes a donation of $10 or more can choose between a subscription to the Joy2MeU Journal or the pdf e-book version of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls.

Anyone who makes a donation of $20 or more can choose between a subscription to the Dancing in Light pay to view section of the site or the e-book version of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls.

Anyone who makes a donation of $35 or more can choose between a subscriptions to the Joy2MeU Journal and the e-book or the Dancing in Light pay to view section of the site and the e-book or the digitally remastered MP3 files or CDs of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls "An audio Spiritual Experience"

People who donates $50 or more, can choose between subscriptions to both the Journal and Dancing sections - or my new book Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light or the e-book and the digitally remastered MP3 download or CDs. Or some such combination thereof.

Anyone who makes a donation of $75 or more can choose subscriptions to the Joy2MeU Journal and the Dancing in Light pay to view section of the site and either the digitally remastered MP3 files of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls "An audio Spiritual Experience" or my new book.

One of the incredible Miracles on my Path

"By the later part of March (1995) I was in dire financial straights and very discouraged. My credit cards were maxed out, my car needed some work, and I had borrowed money from a few people. One Friday morning I woke from a dream seeing the image of a check in my hand. I didn't remember the dream - just the image of a check. It was for $5,104.68 or some such odd number. I don't remember exactly. I guess by that time I had figured out that I needed about $5000 to get even, get back to Taos, and get started back up there - with a place to live and all.

That afternoon I snapped. I raged and cussed at God. I yelled something to the affect, "You promised you would take care of me. You blankety blank blank blank, how could you betray me like this. I am just doing your will - doing what you told me to do. Now I need $5000 just to get even and I still need $20,000 to publish the book." And I cried quite a bit because I was really hurting - feeling abandoned and betrayed - and feeling like I had made a huge mistake.

The next afternoon there was a CoDA meeting - and one of the people who was doing a group with me called to ask if she could talk to me after the meeting. I said sure - and then was hoping and praying that she would at least consider the time I would spend with her counseling and pay me the $25 I charged for a session in those days so I would be able to eat over the weekend. That was how bad it was by then.

After the meeting we stepped outside into a little patio / smoking area, and she handed me an envelope. I opened the envelope and was confused by what was in it. It was a cashiers check and I had never seen one before. It took me a few seconds just to figure out what it was. As it started to sink in, I looked at the figure on the check - it was for $5,000.

The first thing I said was, "It's not for the right amount." - because it didn't match my dream. Can you imagine being destitute, having someone hand you a cashiers check made out to you, and saying "it's not the right amount." I think, it is safe to say, I was in shock." - Leap of Faith ~ Publishing The Dance

A few days before my birthday I added the following announcement to this page - and sent it out as e-mail announcement to my mailing list as well as posting it on Facebook.

7/20/2011 - In Celebration of my 39th birthday* and the publication of my new book I am offering special prices for the new book:

Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light
Book 1 Empowerment, Freedom, and Inner Peace through Inner Child Healing
(aka A Formula for Spiritual Integration and Emotional Balance)

including offering it with super low phone counseling prices & a special deal on next Intensive Training Day. (For those special offers click on book cover)
And I am putting out a message to the Universe - trumpeting and broadcasting** - that I am open to receiving financial gifts for my birthday. (Below)

* My 39th birthday was actually in 1987 - and proved a turning point in my recovery.

"It wasn't until I set myself up to feel abandoned and betrayed on my birthday (one of my old regular patterns for special days) that I became willing to do the emotional healing - and started actively pursuing emotional healing.” - The Story of Joy to You & Me

That birthday not only put me in enough pain that I was willing to actively dive into the emotional healing but also brought the intervention of a Psychic messenger (part of the JoyStory) who planted the seeds of Joy to You & Me, Joy2MeU, and the image of my inner child as my wounded soul - and was the first person to tell me that I was a Spiritual Being having a Human Experience

"The first time a messenger came to me carrying the message, the reminder, that I was a Spiritual Being having a human experience, I got really angry. My first reaction was anger. My first thought was, "That means that I've got to be out among them."

I never wanted to be out among you-all. I always wanted to go up on a mountain and meditate my way to God. What I have learned in this healing process is that I find God through "being out among them," through my human relationships. We are here to learn to relate to each other. We are here to learn to Love ourselves and each other." - Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls

So, you can see that was a pretty important birthday to me.

** As I was writing the above, "putting out a message" wasn't nearly strong enough to describe what I was feeling. The word that came to mind was bellow - which reminded me of Moose Medicine and led me to this quote from my November 2002 Update Newsletter.

"So, I once again reaffirm my commitment to being an ally with the Spirit where Love lives instead of with the disease where fear rules. I Joyously, with tears running down my cheeks and sobs of Joy bubbling up my throat, proclaim and declare to you; to the Universe; to my Higher Power; to The God-Force, Goddess Energy, Great Spirit, Holy Mother Source Energy; to all that is blessed and holy; Fuck the fear I say - full speed ahead in the direction of Love.

I trumpet and broadcast proudly out into the Universe: my commitment to my recovery journey; to my Karmic mission; to speaking my Truth; and say: "Bring it on Bubba baby!" Because it is so worth it! Every second of suffering and pain, terror and loneliness, is worth being able to access the Truth of Unconditional Love. Amen. So be it. So it is. Blessed be.

Should be interesting to see what happens now, don't you think. ;-)

PSS. This is so perfect, I just couldn't help including it. When I reread what I had just written above, and saw the word trumpet, it brought to mind the Moose totem in the Medicine Cards. I looked up from my computer at my calendar - and guess what the picture for November is: Moose. The theme of Moose medicine is self esteem - of course

Here is a quote from the Medicine Card book about the significance of Moose:

"The bellow of the male Moose can be viewed as a positive force, since it represents his willingness to "tell the world" about his feelings.
This "tell the world" trait contains a joyfulness which only comes from a sense of accomplishment. There is no greater joy than a job well done. This trait is therefore not a seeking of approval, but rather an enjoyment of sharing because of the spontaneous explosion of joy that comes from the deepest part of one's being."

This process is soooooo awesome!!!” - Joy2MeU Update Newsletter November 2002 (Grateful acknowledgment is made for permission to quote in Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls from: Medicine Cards by Jamie Sams and David Carson, copyright 1988, Bear & Co. Reprinted by permission Bear & Co., P.O. Box 2860, Santa Fe, NM 87504.)

I actually sent out - bellowed out - the message to the Universe "Bring it on!" - that is bring on whatever lessons I need to learn to open up to Love, 4 times in Update Newsletters between December 1998 and December 2004. I got my heart broken 3 times - and then in 2005 I found my sweetie who I have now been with 6 years and who I got married to last January. Recovery is a precious gift that I am soooooo grateful for. Being willing to take the action to face my fears and go through the black hole of my grief has brought me great rewards - and I am very proud and grateful for the accomplishments that resulted from my Spirit leading me to honor my Spiritual Path and go where I was guided.

So with a "joyfulness which only comes from a sense of accomplishment" Happy Birthday to me in a "spontaneous explosion of joy that comes from the deepest part of one's being."!!!!!!! ~ Robert 7/20/11

Here is an excerpt of a "Happy Birthday to Me" message I sent to my Yahoo Mailing list the next day 7/21/11

"This Yahoo mailing list is the place that I most often get to write about what is happening in my life and process now - since I only have time to do Update Newsletters once or twice a year. So, I am now going to go into a lot more detail about what is going on, and what I feeling about it all.

When I was writing that yesterday - and as I am writing about it today - I feel so much Joy & gratitude for my recovery process, and for how focusing on my healing and sharing it through my writing has touched the lives of so many people. It is such a miracle.

And just that little bit of writing I did yesterday got me in touch with the feeling of how awesome the process can be for me at times. I had the thought about saying that I was celebrating my 39th birthday just because that is one people like to say they stopped at - but then I realized which birthday was my 39th and how important it was. And when I wrote the next part about saying I was open to receiving financial gifts - and was reminded of the Moose Medicine - it was a magical moment for me. The kinds of moments I used to have in my writing all the time.

I don't have time to write these days. As I explained in the Author's Foreword to my new book.

"My personal inner child healing has been so successful that I have gone from living in isolation with a relationship phobia and a terror of intimacy to celebrating the 6th anniversary (June 15th 2011) of living with someone in an intimate relationship (that became a marriage in January 2011) that has included the precious gift of being the primary caregiver in raising an amazing little boy for the past 5 plus years (my wife's grandson who is now 6 1/2.) As a result I don't have time to write much these days - and haven't for the last 4 to 5 years."

So, it is really great to get a chance to write - even if it is only a little. And writing helps me to get emotionally honest with myself. Writing that yesterday really got me back in touch with the Joy and gratitude that I feel for my spiritual path - and with how far I have come and how hard it has been. And writing about this today has taken me into some grief about how hard it still is in many ways.

Part of what felt so Joyful to me yesterday was proclaiming (bellowing and trumpeting) it out to the Universe that I am open to receive because I believe I deserve to receive. It felt so much better than asking for help. But the Truth is that I desperately need help. I was trying to get this publishing process done and running into lots of challenges and stress because I was trying to do it in a hurry because I need help. I was telling myself that I could sell 100 copies of my book in the next week and make the money I need for rent and bills and to continue with my various projects - because I need at least $3000 to manifest soon. . . . .

. . . . . Right now I am feeling pretty scared and overwhelmed. It hurts that it is still such a struggle financially. It hurts to have to keep asking for help. I am going to be 63 on Saturday. I sure never expected to get this old. And I just wish it wasn't so hard to pay the bills.

But these are just feelings of the moment. The aren't my total reality or my Higher Truth. Everything will work out some how, some way. It is important to own these feelings. My glass is much more full than it is empty - but it is vital not to deny or judge and shame myself for the part that is empty. Writing this has let me release some of the pain and fear. Hopefully sales and gifts will come flowing in in abundance. Maybe I will win the lottery. ;-)" - "Happy Birthday to Me!" Message to Yahoo Mailing list Thu Jul 21, 2011 7:04 pm

On September 5, 2011 I added this to my Metaphysical Law: Giving and Receiving page.

September 2011

I was able to keep my book in print in 2003 and in the years since then through miracles and donations to Joy2MeU. In 2008 I had to reprint my book again - and was able to, right before the economy crashed.

"I posted that article (the one I mention just above about "Leap of Faith ~ Publishing The Dance") as part of sending out a request for donations to help keep my book in print one more time. The combination of not getting nearly as many donations as I had hoped, and the printing company printing a large print run without getting my final approval, put us in a real hard financial place that September. Then the bottom fell out of the economy shortly after that." - Joy2MeU Update Newsletter May 2010

Since the recession hit, things have been very difficult. Anyone who is interested in finding out the details can check out Asking for Help 2010 or my messages to my Yahoo Mailing list (for the most recent developments.) This year I have made a concerted effort to create more cash flow by making more products available. Each of these new products I thought was going to bring a significant increase in income (just as I thought all those years ago that Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls would become a best seller.) The results have been very disappointing. I now have a recording of my Intensive Training Day available - something people have been asking for for years - and I have only sold a few of them. I have produced CDs of the digitally remastered version of Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls An Audio Spiritual Experience - and now I can't afford to burn more copies to sell. I was finally able to publish Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light Book 1 Empowerment, Freedom, and Inner Peace through Inner Child Healing - and have sold less than 2 dozen copies. I will be needing to reprint The Dance of Wounded Souls again before the year is over - but don't have the money I need to do that either.

So maybe it is this year - 2011 - that the book goes out of print and I can't keep my website going any longer. I hope not - but as I said above, I can accept whatever the plan is as it is revealed. The economy seems to be getting worse, so more will be revealed about what is going to happen.

Love offerings and Spiritual tithes are always welcome and very much appreciated. I appreciate that you have even read this page - and if your Spirit moves you to send some money energy this way, I will be very grateful. ~ Robert 9/5/11

On December 24, 2011 I added this to my Metaphysical Law: Giving and Receiving page.

December 2011

My book is being reprinted as a print on demand book through Amazon.com's CreateSpage service - the same way I was able to print my second book this past summer. This is a real blessing that was made possible by my friend Ken T. of North Carolina who put up the money to get the process started. It will ultimately mean somewhat of a decrease in my monthly income of the books I sell through Amazon, because now I will be buying the book from CreateSpace to sell through Amazon but is so much better than the alternative which was to raise thousands of dollars to reprint the book myself. Today, on Christmas Eve, I got notice from CreateSpace that I will get a proof copy of the new printing of the book in about a week - so I should have it available in early January. Once again the Universe has manifested a way to keep my book in print - and this time it is in print indefinitely. I am very grateful and blessed. ~ Robert 12/24/11
