Do the Write Thing

Dos and Don'ts of Recovery

 

Nannette Flagg

 

Do let people help you grow
'Cause they have what you want to know
Don't let people tell you what to do
'Cause in your heart you already know what's true

Do let people get to know the real you
'Cause then they will know that your are living true
Don't let people tell you that you're no good
'Cause now you are living like you should

Do let people treat you right
'Cause they know that you live in God's light
Don't let people steal your recovery
'Cause every day is a new discovery

Do let people pray for you
'Cause it is something good to do
Don't let people treat you bad
'Cause something in their life is sad

Do let people help you start
'Cause this means that they have a heart
Don't let people steal your joy
'Cause today your life is not a toy

Do let people help you fight
Don't ever forget to share
'Cause people need to know you care
