-What do you value most in life? Sobriety and my husband

2-Do believe that people are inherently good or bad? I don't know

3-What is your greatest regret? That I didn't deal with my incest issues sooner and that I weigh much more than is healthy because of it.

4-What do you see as your greatest achievement? Sobriety, 13 years of it

5-How do you deal with someone you don't like? Distant and polite.

6-What do you feel you are entitled to in life? Nothing. I believe that what I give is most important.

7-What's your favourite song? "Strong Enough" by Sheryl Crow. It so represents my marriage.

8-How do you personally define "Right" from "Wrong"? "As long as it hurts no one, do what you will." This makes me think beyond the immediate to other people who might be affected.

9-What's your name? Susan Reid Smith
Good luck finding me in the phone book.

	My husband is my best friend. In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
