“Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when doing so would injure them or others.”
For me, this was the absolute most complicated step I did. It wasn’t the amended letters of those I hurt because of what I said or did not do. It was forgiveness of those who harmed me sexually as a child. It took a lot of prayers, meditation, and spiritual growth to make my choice. If it were not for step 3 and surrendering to God and letting Him carry the burden, I would not be able to write the discussion topic.
What are your thoughts on step 9? We must admit we were wrong and possibly forgive others who have hurt us deeply.
