What power has love but forgiveness? William Carlos Williams.
In order to get better from a drug or alcohol problem we need to start to like ourselves better. We need to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we have made and we also need to work on forgiving people who we feel have wronged us. That is always hard to do because we feel, somehow, that being angry at them will is someway hurt them or pay them back. In reality the only person we are hurting is ourselves, the best revenge,if you want to think of it that way, is to forgive them. The gift is to yourself, you are the one who receives the benefits. Hanging on to resentments is self inflicted injury.
Take today to wrap up and deliver the best gift you can get, let go of the things that are hurting you.
