“Resentment will do nothing except tear us apart inside. No one ever found serenity through hatred. No one ever truly recovered from the effects of alcoholism by harboring anger or fear or by holding onto grudges….Forgiveness is no favor. We do it for no one but ourselves….Although we may despise what others have done, if we keep in mind that everything we are now trying to do has the goal of healing us, we are bound to decide that the best thing we can do for ourselves is to forgive.” How Al-Anon Works for Families and Friends of Alcoholics pages 86 - 87
"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes".
