If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's a four column or a five column inventory when we do our four step and then the first column in that inventory it talks about the person that I'm angry with. But these inventories of what my wrongs are is because when I first got sober I didn't think I had any wrongs.
What does it mean to truly live with purpose in sobriety? In this engaging episode of 'Purpose of this Book - Intensive Big Book Study', hosts David G, Mark B, Minor A, and Nancy F dive into the chapter 'The Family Afterward' from pages 130-134 of the Big Book. This discussion offers a heartfelt exploration of how family dynamics evolve when someone is on the path to recovery.
The team sheds light on the importance of principles, spirituality, and the role of ego in both addiction and recovery. They emphasize how working the steps can lead to profound changes, not just for the individual but for their loved ones as well. Unselfishness and helping others are highlighted as key elements to finding happiness and freedom in sobriety.
One memorable quote captures the essence of the episode: 'But these inventories of what my wrongs are is because when I first got sober I didn't think I had any wrongs'. Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical advice on living a purposeful life in recovery.
