Where I get into trouble is when my expectations become demands
Wake up to a fresh start with 'AA Morning Snippets', hosted by Alyssa. This episode kicks off with a moment of silence for those affected by alcoholism, followed by the serenity prayer. Alyssa shares a poignant reflection on the difference between expectations and demands, drawing from Alcoholics Anonymous literature. She emphasises that while it's normal to have expectations, problems arise when these turn into demands.
Alyssa encourages you to trust in a higher power and focus on self-improvement, rather than getting bogged down by unmet expectations. She also touches on the importance of sharing faith and blessings with others, fostering a sense of community and support. The episode then shifts to a reading from 'Season Number 45: Our Companions', which highlights the collective effort needed to tackle alcoholism. Alyssa underscores the value of education and collaboration in changing public attitudes towards alcohol addiction.
The episode concludes with the Lord's Prayer, reinforcing the spiritual aspect of recovery. This episode is a great way to start your day with a sense of purpose and community. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, Alyssa's reflections offer valuable insights and encouragement. So, why not take a few minutes to listen and find some inspiration for your journey?
