Stop Fixing Others
Dear Higher Power,
When I am overly dependent on others, I try to fix them. I have a real talent in pinpointing what is wrong with other people. But the very thing that enables me to see their defects most often blinds me to the same, sometimes even worse, shortcomings in myself.
Help me stop fretting about others and instead focus on correcting my own character defects.
You are reading from the book:
The 12 Step Prayer Book Volume 2 by Bill P. and Lisa D.
