A reader wrote recently in response to one of my blogs that we don’t come into the world owing anything to anyone. Okay, does that take a long time to hear if you’re born into the world and made into an enabler by an alcoholic parent.
You know what enablers do, they sacrifice their needs to make sure they are taking care of those whose needs are greater.
Today, I was speaking to a friend, a graduate of Alinon, and guess what, he went through the cycle with me – “you see someone taking care of themselves and you are at first angry, then envious, then you are like wow, maybe I could take care of myself, and then you are headed away from the way, the path,” the role you have learned so well it is more than familiar it is almost your religion.
I don’t owe the world anything – and at the very least perfection.
