THERE IS NO FREEDOM IN RESENTMENTS AND FEELING LIKE A VICTIM Freedom in the dictionary is defined as, “The condition of being free of restraints”, or “liberty of the person from slavery, detention, or oppression.” Have you ever noticed that those that are full of resentments and those who feel like victims either stay drunk/high, relapse or live in total misery? I felt like a victim for 12 years after attending my first meeting. I didn’t get it. I really thought the world was out to get me and no one had been through what I’d been through. If they had, they’d understand and would and should coddle me. What I learned is that VICTIMS DON’T STAY SOBER!! Blaming others for my troubles has never proven to be successful either. “Resentment is the number one offender.” If I don’t own my part in a situation, I am sure to be resentful. And when I’m resentful, the only person I’m hurting is me. Getting out of the victim role and away from resentments is truly freeing. -JS
