Resentment can eat the marrow out of a bone.

As I learned from the rooms. Resentments are like drinking poison, and waiting for you to die.

Well today I refuse to let someone have that much power. I had the most resentment for me. I accepted that everything that happened bad in my life was of my doing. And I tried to kill myself ever so slowly by poisoning myself with drinking and drugging for decades. And now that I have made it as far as I have I will not let someone else control that part of my sobriety.

"Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom." Hannah Arendt

Resentments keep us in the past, a past that never be relived. Resentments keep a stranglehold on our mind. They keep us from appreciating the beauty of a moment. They step us from hearing the loving voices of friends. We forget that we have a misson to fulfill.

Fortunately , we can shake this hold on us and myself, and my freedom comes when I decide to forgive whatever transgressions are made against me. This decsion, with some practice, has become second nature.

Clearly the choice to resent no one is my oppurtunity to free my mind and heart for real activities. That my HP wants me to attend to. My purpose in life would go unfulfilled if I harboured resentments. Thankfully I have a program of recovery that works for me.

Holding resentments against others hurts me. Forgiveness can make me glad to be alive today.. :ghug3


Good love , HP3..
