Remember Mindfulness – sit comfortably

Fellowship

Groups of men and women who share their
experience, strength, and hope with each other, in
order to solve a common problem, are found in many
settings other than Twelve Step fellowships. People
naturally depend on each other and learn from each
other. Dependence and learning are two-way
activities – there is a giver for every dependent and a
teacher for every learner. That is how a fellowship
works and is why the idea of service is important.
Each man should give what he has decided in
his heart to give, not reluctantly or under
compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
St Paul, Corinthians.
Do I fully understand that fellowship means a giving
and a taking in equal measures?

It is not by chance that the Twelve Steps begin with
the word ‘we’. Most addicted people, including those
who wrote the Steps, are well aware of the
egotism that can so easily hinder full
engagement in the programme. Yet, the paradox is
that nobody can work the programme for us – we
must do it ourselves.
