Beware of THIS in RECOVERY ⚠️

the 12th step without real humility can turn an addict into a real codependent because then all of a sudden you become the one who has to rescue everybody else you can't rescue people their journey is their Journey their timeline is their timeline all you can do is when God puts you in somebody's life at that moment then be there at that moment the best you can be and let go of outcomes that's very very tricky it's sort of a paradox because to completely let go and to say well I can't control anybody so therefore I'll never talk to anybody again that's easy right that's how I'm recovering from codependence I'm going to become a Hermit I'll never talk to anyone again then I won't control them or the other extreme which is oh you want me to go talk to people sure and I'll go control them yeah that's the Other Extreme but the balance is that I do involve myself in other people's lives I do show up and I do offer a message that I think is helpful but at the exact same time I'm totally accepting of the fact that they don't have to listen
