I think I can change that feeling now into acceptance and humility, I have carried resentment around with me way to long, and when I looked deep into myself, I thought ermmmmmm it's only me keeping this resentment a live, let it go, and swap it for acceptence and low and behold I feel lighter, light bulb moment yay!
I have doubted that it was possible to be happy living with an A, but now he is sober I have no excuse for using my resentment towards him to stay stuck, I cannot be who I am because of who he is, thats just not fair, I want to be who I am because of me, the family that I have found here make all of this possible, much thanks to Mip!
(((((Katy))))) Wowzers!! from the Pacific also. Gracious don't forget this lesson at any time Katy that is major awareness, change and growth. Powerful. You might want to also add forgiveness to the tools against resentments as for me that one also helps put a long nail in the coffin of resentments. Thanks so much for sharing that growth.
I came to the same conculsion during a f2f meeting on resentments, it hit home with me that at the end of the day only one person who is hurt and effected by resentments-----and that is the one who is harboring them.
Gotta love those moments. Well done! Resentments are hard to get rid of. I still struggle with some. But I realized that resentments only hurt me, not the other persons. Why let them win? I try to take all that negative energy I feel and turn it into something positive. Keep up the great work. Much love and blessings to you and your family.
