OFTEN IT'S COMING TO TERMS -
"Resentful attitudes toward others will defeat our recovery. We correct this attitude in the practice of Step Nine. Amends integrate our personalities by harmonious, helpful relation with God [our H.P.] and the victims of our insane ... obsessions." (The Little Red Book, p. 90)
AND LIVING IN SPIRITUAL HARMONY -
"Incorporating the spiritual principles we learned in the first nine steps into our lives has made it possible to live in harmony with ourselves and others. Self-examination ... and owning up to our wrongs are critical elements of conducting our lives on a spiritual basis." (It Works, How & Why,p. 69)
"Happiness
is when what
you think, what
you say, and what
you do are in harmony."
- Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948) India Independence Movement Leader from British rule
