Some of us who are living in one day at a time recovery learn when we are blaming others for our struggles we are actually in all reality paying no attention to what our struggles really are. This is the reality of scapegoating which can make us bitter people opposed to love, belonging, and the inextricable connection between all people. When we understand this we understand we can disagree without opposing love, belonging, and the inextricable connection we all share. Scapegoating and dehumanization should happen less when we live in one day at a time recovery and perhaps we learn to drop the word blame in regards to the reasons for our own unhappiness. Struggles become less as we discover our own reality. It’s the simplicity of love. Peace.
