Self-righteousness, the very thing that we had contemptuously condemned in others, was our own besetting evil. This phony form of respectability was our undoing, so far as faith was concerned. ~ Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, Alcoholics Anonymous, page 30.I hate people like me.
I see their weaknesses
and despise them, loathe them,
mock them. It's taken years
and at times humiliation
to figure out these defects
bug me most in others
because I try to hard
to hide them when I stare
at my reflection in their lives.
