God always makes up for the wrongs man does to me.
A woman’s greatest weakness is her children -and no one can hurt a mother like her children.
Every relationship has it’s problems -but which one’s of yours should you let go and which should you take a stand on (and not accept).
You can turn most people against you if you try hard enough. You can turn some people against you without trying at all.
I always saw myself on the it’s on the end of humanity where I had to prove myself… Where I was at a disadvantage to the rest of the world. I think I’ll try a different tact! Something a little more at the other end of the spectrum maybe? π€·ββοΈ
Immaturity and insanity are perhaps the chief causes of man’s acting out as he does.

Since when do people with a limited track record or none at all (success) start telling people with long-term success how it’s done.
If we don’t take care of our children they’re gonna start taking care of themselves -and we’re not gonna like what we see.
WHEN YOU AND ANOTHER ARE @ ODDS -EVERYTHING YOU SAY WILL BE TURNED TO A NEGATIVE BY THEM!
Never give a person a reason to justify/rationalize their wrongful/inappropriate actions.
These people (2 or 3) in AA have really got it out/in for me! By doing the wrong, and by doing the right thing, you can make enemies.
You’re trying to have a rational conversation with irrational people.
Most people are limited to their perceptions of truth -that comprises “the in-crowd”. Someone comes along with a little (or alot) more insights. And it created issues because the deeper a person can go, and the less-inclined the the people around you are to go there with you… π€·ββοΈ
Only when we are honest with people do we afford the a genuine opportunity to form an opinion (or make a decision) based on facts.
If people didn’t get along strictly with assholes, there would be hope for humanity -but people don’t get along with each other whether they’re being good or bad π€·ββοΈπ₯΄π€·ββοΈ
Life keeps bringing us back to the lessons in life we have yet to/refuse to learn.
We teach people how to treat us
DISHONEST PEOPLE DON’T LIKE HONEST PEOPLE
I remember when Ana decided to pick up and read the Bible -our relationship was never the same. And we had been discussing how my aunt would talk about how satan intervenes when a person tries to escape his grasp. Now, he used people in Ana’s case who fell prey to his twisting of the truth hinging on fear, ego, selfishness… he didn’t force these people into anything, he simply tricked them, he simply used their weaknesses. A person that’s unprepared… A person not insulated by the wall of human community… DR. CARL JUNG (LETTER TO BILL W. January 30th 1961).
Sure a lot of people with money and good looks have a lot of opportunities -including relationship opportunities.* But there’s a flip side to that coin – If you got all that going for you and you still get dumpedβ¦. At least if you and me get dumped, there’s a a reasonable possibility -it could be them rather than (as much as) us.**
*A lot of opportunities that wouldn’t ordinarily be afforded if it weren’t for the money or their physical attractiveness.
**Because people don’t ordinarily throw away “a good thing” without a very good reason***
***The more you have going for you the more what you don’t have going for you people have a tendency to tolerate -the less you have going for you… π€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ

How can you win by giving in? In AA this is the first step towards liberation from Alcohol. But Alciholics are not the only one’s who struggle with the concept of winning by giving in, by admitting complete defeat.

All I ever wanted -“THE LIFE I NEVER HAD”
Which part of my π§ do I use the most?
A lot of people seem to be consumed with homeostasis – I’m speaking on the emotional level. We human beings go to such lengths to avoid pain, discomfort, feeling fearful -that we will even do the wrong thing in pursuit of it. This is where all the world’s problems stem from -and this is where all of satan’s powers are granted to him. I believe, like everyone else, except God (doing evil is not a limitation), satan himself is bound by certain restrictions. He cannot violate man’s self will. He cannot turn a good person to evil against their will.
Is it true that people come out of prison worse than when they went in in many cases?
