Ceci B. on Prioritizing Unity and Service in Recovery

Deferring my personal desires for the greater good of group growth contributes toward a unity that is central to all recovery.
What does it mean to put the group's welfare above your own? Ceci B. from Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, brings this concept to life in a touching episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast. Sharing her experiences, Ceci delves into the importance of unity and service within the recovery community. She opens up about how deferring personal desires for the greater good has been pivotal in her journey to sobriety.
Through her heartfelt reflections, Ceci discusses how focusing on the group's needs over individual wants has helped her deflate her ego and foster spiritual growth. Ceci also reads a beautiful poem by Mary Oliver titled 'Praying', which speaks to finding beauty in simplicity and being open to gratitude and silence. This poem resonates deeply with the themes of humility and service that Ceci emphasizes throughout her story.
She shares how finding a sponsor and working on her defects of character have allowed her to be more useful to others rather than seeking importance for herself. Listeners will find inspiration in Ceci's journey as she highlights the significance of service to others in maintaining sobriety. Her reflections serve as a reminder that we are all part of a larger community, and our collective welfare is crucial for personal recovery.
Ceci's story is a testament to the power of unity, humility, and selflessness in the path to sobriety.
