WHAT'S OURS:



A helpful process in our recovery, can be learning
to identify who owns what. Then we let each
person own and possess his or her rightful
property.

If a person has an addiction, a problem, a feeling,
or a self-defeating behavior, it's their property, not
ours. If someone is a martyr, immersed in negativity,
controlling, or manipulating, it's their issue, not ours.

Our property may include our behaviors, problems,
feelings, happiness, misery, choices, and messages;
our ability to love, care, and nurture; our thoughts,
our denial, our hopes and dreams for ourselves.
Whether we allow ourselves to be controlled,
manipulated, deceived, or mistreated is our
business.

In recovery, we learn an appropriate sense of
ownership. If something isn't ours, we don't take it.
If we happen to take it, we learn to give it back.
Let other people have their property, and learn to
own and take good care of what is ours.
