We actually go about<br>making amends to people we have hurt, where<br>appropriate. In other words, we do what we need to<br>do for our recovery, but we consider the needs of<br>others as well. We approached things very<br>differently when we were in active addiction. In those<br>days, gratification came first and nothing else<br>mattered. If we do this Step in the right way, we can<br>say that change is really happening.
