V is for Vanity. Vanity is part of my dis-ease, it isn't a principle of the program. So many times my ego and vanity, along with pride and venomous thoughts toward myself and others, just drew me deeper into my disease.
It is not a recovery tool. I thought if I looked could it would hide the inner self that I didn't want any one else to see.
I was noticing some of the things I had been wearing lately and thought, there was a time, I wouldn't have been caught dead in them. What would people say? It doesn't matter what they say, it is about me and my attitude that needed changing, and my vanity was one of the first things that had to go.
