Thanks Shipmate. You know, although it took me a while to realize I wasn't God, I did come to the conclusion that I can still treat others as God treated me. Love for others is my goal. I don't like some people, but I do have to strive on a daily basis to practice love for them just the same. I hear people say, "it's just not fair!" My reply to them is, "it's a good thing life isn't fair!" If God kept score, I'd be in the tank. My sobriety is due to God's grace and is a gift I used to believe I didn't deserve. I don't believe that any more. Anyone can change for the better. I've come to like people I used to not like, just because I kept on loving them enough to just be there when they called. I finally came around. I owe others the same opportunity.
