Loosid Sober Tip of the Day June 15

Do you want to be right, or do you want to be free?

In recovery, we often hear the words irritable, restless and discontent. One of the biggest blockages that keeps us in this state is holding onto past resentments or ‘justified anger.’

The problem is, until you can release the resentment, you will never be free. Justified or not.

Resentment is very much like you drinking the poison and waiting for the other party to suffer.

Letting go of your resentment is the key to your freedom.

Will you have to do some work to get there? Absolutely. There are is a spiritual path waiting for you to help to get you to the other side.

There is no value in being right at the expense of your freedom.

Choose to be free today. Why? Because you deserve it.

This really hits home for me because I’m on my 4th step. And it’s true we don’t have the dubious luxury like normal people to hold on to resentment and be ok. For us to hold on to resentment is to remain suffering and eventually take us back out to the bottle and bag so I love this and know today that I want to be free because me being right never did me any good lol.
