THE BEST WAY TO FIND YOURSELF
-by Linda Redmond-
‘The best way to find yourself, is to lose yourself in the service of others,' -Mahatma Gandhi-
When I first came into recovery, back in the last century, literally, I was told time and again, how important it was to attend AA meetings. And that this would be a lifetime commitment. That was a tall order, but one I was determined to comply with because for me and my family my sobriety was vital! Giving back by paying it forward is the backbone of AA and the reason it is in every town and every city in the world saving lives since 1935! It is the time given freely by thousands of men and women throughout the world that keeps the show on the road as the saying goes. I stopped going to meetings, AA was not to be my way, but for years it niggled at me at my core that I was keeping this sober gift to myself and not sharing it freely with others. Fast forward 16 years of sobriety followed by relapse that lasted nearly 4 years, and then a second chance at this gift, and major lessons learned. And the Universe knew I was ready to do what I was always meant to do and brought Susan Christina and Hola Sober into my world.
