Hurting others.

Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.
-Buddhist Quote

Early on when I was first sober I discovered some really weird things about myself. Even sober, I could give a good tongue lashing, in fact I had gotten "better" at it.  I found that I could also get drunk on this anger. This was soon after my pink clouds had disappeared. It really freaked me out. It had never happened to me before. I can only assume that being drunk and numb I never knew that a person could have that happen. And again, I wasn't in control of myself. And I was hurting those close to me. Wow.

I had to take a step back.

I had to take inventory of myself, and make amends.

Whoa. Simple program, but not always simple to do.

Today, I'll try to watch what I say, and if I can't say something good, maybe I shouldn't be saying it?
