attraction to and tolerance for the bizarre, other-centeredness that results in abandonment of self, - Melody Beattie

Codependents make great employees. They don’t complain; they do more than their share; they do whatever is asked of them; they please people; and they try to do their work perfectly — at least for a while, until they become angry and resentful.

Today, I will understand that I hold the key to my freedom. I will stop participating in my oppression and victimization. I will take responsibility for myself, and let others do as they may.

I’d like to make a motion that we face reality. — BOB NEWHART, FROM THE BOB NEWHART SHOW
