lol........this thread could, for me, be titled "252 resentments."

lmao!

I'm getting better - seeing them didn't make me mad like it would have in the past - but I still can't read a list like that without seen hypocrisy and contradictions to the program everywhere..... but hey, if it helps someone, who am I to judge, right?

I will, however, complain about #132
132. this is a selfish program
........no, IT'S NOT. It's precisely the opposite of that in every imaginable way. Some ppl, may work it as a selfish program (because selfishness and self-centeredness IS the root of our malady) but it's not supposed to be done like that.

p14
For if an alcoholic failed to perfect and enlarge his
spiritual life through work and self-sacrifice for others,
he could not survive the certain trials and low spots
ahead.

p20
Our very lives, as ex-problem
drinkers, depend upon our constant thought of others
and how we may help meet their needs.
