    I suggest you forgive.

     

    Regards,

    Christina

    I like some of the other sayings that I learned in AA. Like the serenity prayer, one day at a time, keep it simple, take what you want and leave the rest, think think think, this to shall pass.

     

    12 step communities have helped alot of people. They helped me.

     

    Have a good day,
