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.
