Maybe the most important amend is to yourself; who received the majority of the abuse? If you are working the 9th Step then a change has taken place that is not just another bandaid apology. Recovery is about inner personal change. Acknowledgement of past wrongs is necessary when it will not hurt others or yourself, but this is only a part of the 9th Step. At this point in your recovery all the the prior step work has slowly prepared you for this hurdle. Freedom is never won through the softer, easier way. How has God strengthened you for this Step? If in your gut you are so uncomfortable with 9, talk to your Sponsor about reviewing the previous 8 Steps this weekend. You will be fine, if you continue to work for change. You too will have a new Life. "Behold, all is New". R
