FIXING ME, NOT YOU
If somebody hurts us and we are sore, we are in the wrong also.
~ TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 90 ~
What a freedom I felt when this passage was pointed out to me! Suddenly I saw that I could do something about my anger, I could fix me, instead of trying to fix them. I believe that there are no exceptions to the axiom. When I am angry, my anger is always self-centered. I must keep reminding myself that I am human, that I am doing the best I can, even when that best is sometimes poor. So I ask God to remove my anger and truly set me free.
