THE SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLE THAT GOES BOTH WAYS -
"As we realize
our need to be for-
given, we tend to be
more forgiving. At least
we know that we are no
longer intentionally mak-
ing life miserable for
people." (The Basic
Text, pp. 39-40)
WE CAN DO IT IF WE TRY -
"Often it was while working on this Step with our sponsors or spiritual advisers that we first felt truly able to forgive others, no matter how deeply we felt they had wronged us." " ... we inwardly knew we'd be able to receive forgiveness and give it, too." (12 & 12, pp. 57- 58)
"The weak
can never for-
give. Forgiveness
is the attribute of
the strong."
- Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948) preeminent Indian political and spiritual leader

HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
