Well said Rufus! It does say in the BIg Book that "Resentment is the 'number one' offender. It destroys more alcoholics than anything else" (pg 64--4th ed). When I feel resentment towards something/someone I like to read pg 552 --last page of "Freedom From Bondage". One alcoholic tells of how they handled resentments--which I have put into practice--because I find that it works for me. (Although it may not be within the first 164 pages--it is one alcoholic sharing their experience, strength, hope with all of us>which--to me--would be the same as listening to somebody share in a meeting. It starts out --"He said, in effect: 'If you have a resentment you want to be free of........' " (and goes on to say what worked for them). I find that it works when I am willing to work it.
