Who said anything about abandoning?
I won’t lie to you. My effort to stop taking another person’s inventory in order to help them (make them see things my way) has been a long, hard battle. I have tried to follow the steps, attend meetings, even posted self-help articles. Still, because of my need to “fix” I struggle when it comes to the detaching with love part of the program.
When this happens, I look at my DNA – Detach Not Abandon guidelines.
The good news is in the process, I am becoming more aware of my control issues. In letting go and letting God, I have freed myself from baseless guilt. Focusing on my own inventory has altered my DNA, and helped me Discover New Alternatives, by restoring my dignity.
“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32 CEV.)
