Well of course we should, but we don't. If you say that you don't, then you're a liar too.
We romp and stomp, connive and manipulate, whatever we can to control and dominate... sometimes in the name of love!
Don't you remember the line? "Everybody, including himself, would be pleased. Life would be wonderful."
This is maybe why some people say they do the 3rd Step Prayer everyday! I do not. I did not do it this morning. I will not. I am on Steps 10 and 11, walking the beam of 10 and 11 so I can be opened up for doing 12. I went to bed early this morning and reviewed my day. Got up and rehashed my nightly review, then did my 11th and 10th step stuff and here I am.
What I was trying to say is that I sometimes get off on my self-pity, anger, resentment, fear, etc. But I suffer and eventually, take it into my prayer and meditation. That crop report says "when", not "if", right?
