Trying to Be Good

Knowing that I could become the person I pretended to be filled me with peace. I no longer have to try to be "good." God does it for me. ~ Voices of Recovery, page 175

Doesn't everyone pretend to be?
Maybe not. I guess there have to be people
who reach the age of reason lacking
the compulsion to claim blame
for all possible wrongs!
I wasn't one, but I have
this remedial class called recovery.
And now I live in peace and joy!
