Step 12 is being of service to others. Of course, we want to help others - God has given us joy that we want to share. Specifically, the joy of being free from compulsive overeating. I say in my book 12 Steps to Recovery From Overeating "Telling our stories reminds us of where we were and how far we've come, and also that we do not want to go back to that type of eating or way of life. It keeps us in a frame of mind to stay in recovery." That is certainly true and a very wonderful benefit to sharing our recovery with others. Blessings and joy to you on your recovery journey in the new year!
