Finally, we begin to see that all people, including ourselves, are to some extent emotionally ill as well as frequently wrong, and then we approach true tolerance and see what real love for our fellows actually means. 12&12, p. 92 #RecoveryPosse #Sobriety #SoberSky

God loves us for who we are and gives us the courage to change. When we are able to love the “real me” and accept our own idiosyncrasies, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. #RecoveryPosse #Sobriety #SoberSky
