Perhaps, then, willingness to make amends wasn't quite as altruistic as I thought it was. I was motivated by a mixture of selfishness, fear of my past, a need to move on and a genuine feeling of sorrow and shame for what I'd done to others.
What does it take to truly face your past and make amends? In this episode of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting', host JJ Chance dives into the intricacies of Step Eight from the Twelve Steps program. This step is all about making a list of those you've harmed and becoming willing to make amends. It's a tough pill to swallow, but JJ's candid storytelling makes it relatable and engaging.
He shares his own struggles with being willing to make amends, driven by a mix of fear, selfishness, and genuine remorse. JJ's journey through Step Eight wasn't just about ticking off names on a list; it was a transformative process that required confronting uncomfortable truths about himself and his actions. For anyone in recovery, this episode offers a heartfelt look at the messy, yet essential, task of taking responsibility for past actions.
JJ's blend of humor and raw honesty makes this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to clear away the wreckage of their past and move forward with a clearer head.
