1. DIDN’T WE HURT ANYBODY?
Some of us, though, tripped over a very different snag. We clung to the claim that when drinking we never hurt anybody but ourselves.TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS , p. 79
2. “Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. Commencing to drink after a period of sobriety, we are in a short time as bad as ever. If we have admitted we are alcoholics, we must have no reservations of any kind, nor any lurking notion that some day we will be immune to alcohol. ~Twenty-Four Hours A Day
3. “Love conquers all things. Let us, too, surrender to love.”–Virgil
Learning to love myself has been one of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn. I had to discover my capacity for self-care. I had to listen to the way I talked to myself and to learn to speak in more affirming ways. Learning to smile — and then laugh — when I made a mistake helped me to be less self-centered and more able to just have fun. ~One Day At A Time
4. There are those too, who suffer from grave emotional and mental disorders, but many of them do recover if they have the capacity to be honest. – Pg. 58 – How It Works
