through being of service early in their recovery. something just short of a miracle occurs when i begin to have a positive impact on the lives of others, through my service efforts. and this is the time when i especially feel that impact, although the evidence in the here and now is lacking. i mean really, i know that i voted to approve the first change to our basic text in twenty years, but that book has yet to be typeset and shipped out to the fellowship and as a result, the effects of that action are not visible to me yet. the rest of the decisions i will be part of formulating over the course of the next forty-eight hours are of that same nature. so in order to really respond to this reading i need to find a few immediate examples of my service to others. well i actually do not NEED to find any, i can find that sort of stuff without any problem at all. in fact i just called my newest sponsee and wished him a HAPPY 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY -- and so it goes o\ff to the cyberworld HAPPY 3 YEARS CJ! IT REALLY IS MIRACLE ANY OF US CAN DO THIS GIG DAY AFTER DAY! and i will be calling another one here in just a few minutes, so i can be of service in his life also.
do i need to build my self-esteem through service? not anymore, but it certainly does not hurt. well i have work work and homework left to accomplish before nine, so although i would love to prattle on, i do need to attend to some tasks before going back to the process.
