Chapter 5, How it works.

Yeah for me , it was step #4 that I learned about forgivness in a new light.
Forgiving myself was harder than forgiving others. Which required me working
more steps.

I also understood forgiving others differently. Or it became clearer or
partical . I had one of those ahha moments...getting
in touch with my emotions or feelings. A simple awareness of,
It's my feelings, my thoughts, my belief.
No one was going to feel my anger or resentments no matterwhat.
So by forgiving others or letting go, i was actually doing it for myself.
No piont caring that crap around. No religion or enlighten stuff, just simple
release.

It came to me in a form of ....There i was feeling down and sorry for myself
and my ex-wife 1600 miles away, living her life and getting laid and what
have ya and it didn't made a bit of differents no matter how **** off i was
at myself or her. An old timer knock me over the head with it of course.

The Big Book or 12 &12 explains it as others are emotionally sick or sicker
than us or everybody has emotional bagage.
