“Going on twelfth step calls, going to court with a new pledge, helping them sort out a budget and always being available so that I can be Divinely inconvenienced is the true experience of giving of one’s self. It is the way out from being turned inwards. This is when I am always certain that I am doing God’s Will - not mine.”
There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.
— John Holmes
Helping others is the foundation stone of your recovery. A kindly act once ina while isn’t enough. You have to act the Good Samaritan every day, if need be.
