In Step Eight we “made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all.”
It is a lot easier to list those persons whom we have harmed by some intentional and direct action than it is to list those whom we have hurt by acts of omission.
We have not only done those things which we ought not to have done, but we have left undone those things which we ought to have done.
Carelessness, neglect, lack of appreciation, and thoughtlessness can hurt as much as a kick in the teeth.
