“The first thing apparent was that this world and its people were often quite wrong… (that was) as far as most of us ever got.” Big Book p. 65-67

The blame game is so lame. It fuels the addiction to drama that dominated my life before recovery. Whether I blame them, feel victimized & get angry or blame myself and slip into self-pity, the end result is an emotional hangover. No thank you. The solution is to be conscious if I am blaming and STOP IT! Instead, I plug into gratitude and acceptance. I alone am in charge of how happy I want to be. Today I’m going for super duper happy.
