“I must learn to give those I love the right to make their own mistakes and recognize them as theirs alone.”
Al-Anon Family Groups, Courage to Change—One Day at a Time in Al‑Anon II

“We are asked to forgive those who have injured us. Unless we have first judged and condemned them for what they did, there would be no reason for us to forgive them. Rather we would have to forgive ourselves for judging.

If we do judge-no matter how great the injury or how premeditated-we are at fault. Following this train of thought to its logical conclusion, we see that we can forgive only ourselves. In doing so, we also forgive the person whose action we have resented.”
Al-Anon Family Groups

“While these loved ones may not meet our expectations, it is our expectations, not our loved ones, that have let us down.”
Al-Anon Family Groups, Courage to Change—One Day at a Time in Al‑Anon II

“I can attain real dignity, importance and individuality only by admitting my dependence on a Power which is great and good beyond anything I can imagine or understand. I want to use this help in making all my decisions. Even though my little human mind cannot figure out what the outcome will be, I am confident that whatever comes will be for my ultimate good.

“Thank God I am not dependent on my own resources alone. Having tried to bring order and meaning into my life without God’s help, I will now step aside and let Him take over.”
