Acting Out Our Defects of Character - Bluidkiti's Alcohol and Drug Addictions Recovery Help/Support Forums

MajestyJo · 09-17-2014, 11:55 AM

I use to tell my ex-husband, you took your foot out of your mouth and put the other one in. My tongue was a big weapon. I realized in recovery, that I would tear strips off someone, tear them apart and didn't bother putting them back together when I was done.

I had to clean up my mouth, my actions, as well as my body, mind, and spirit.

When we judge others, we forget that we have three fingers coming back at us.

As I have shared before, it is human to have defects of character, with my God`s help, I try to work on them daily.

When it comes to a short coming, it means that I am following thought with action.

I try not to do hissy fits, stamp my feet and slam doors, but that is normal too, it just not the way I choose to live in today.
