Our alumni coordinator, Luke Faulkner, shares his thoughts on service: We work the first 11 steps to get to the 12th step. The spiritual principle behind the 12th step is service. I spent a long time just taking from the stream of life. I'd do whatever I had to, use what or whoever I had to, and take whatever I had to to get my way. Through working the steps, I realized how much damage I'd caused and just how selfish I'd been. I'd been selfish and self-centered before I ever ...picked up a drink. Today, I want to change. I don't want to stay that same person that had to have a drink or drug to get through life. When I arrived at the twelfth step, I finally saw the way for me to change those selfish, self-centered ways. I had freely been given a new life. It was my turn to give it back. Service is the whole root and foundation of recovery. From when we first come into the rooms, we start giving back and helping the newcomer. This taught me how to love unconditionally and give back to others, like my family and friends. Slowly but surely, my natural instinct to take and take and take turned into a natural instinct to give. Around the holiday season, giving is frequently on our minds. Let's find opportunities to be of service this holiday season. Whom have I helped today? Who is in need? What ways can I give back? There are always opportunities for service out there. Today, I'm going to search for ways that I can give back to this wonderful life that I get to live, one day at a time. Service not only helps the people I'm being of service to, it also helps me ensure my sobriety. "Practical experience shows that nothing will so much ensure immunity from drinking as intensive work with other alcoholics. It works when other activities fail. This is our twelfth suggestion: Carry this message to other alcoholics! You can help when no one else can. You can secure their confidence when others fail." Alcoholics Anonymous 4th edition, p. 89
