When an alcoholic throws in the towel, he wins a fight, and that was very profound for me.
Imagine reaching a milestone as significant as 32 years of sobriety. In this heartfelt episode of Sober Cast, Gordy from Port Adelaide, South Australia, takes the mic to share his incredible journey on his 32nd AA Birthday. Recorded at the Unity group back in May 2009, Gordy's story is a tapestry woven with threads of surrender, acceptance, and profound gratitude. Growing up in the post-war years, Gordy's early life was anything but easy.
He candidly recounts his struggles with alcohol and the transformative moment when he found Alcoholics Anonymous. It's a tale that underscores the power of admitting and accepting one's own vulnerabilities. Gordy highlights how essential a sponsor was in his journey, guiding him through the steps and helping him understand the importance of giving back rather than just taking. Throughout his narrative, Gordy emphasizes the role of gratitude and acceptance in his recovery.
These principles not only helped him stay sober but also gave him a renewed sense of purpose and meaning in life. His story is a testament to the strength found in community and the wisdom gained through years of personal growth. Whether you're on your own path to sobriety, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking inspiration, Gordy's reflections offer valuable insights and heartfelt lessons.
Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and found joy in giving back to others.
