Honesty gets us sober. Tolerance keeps us sober.
Ever wondered why tolerance is often mentioned in recovery circles? This episode of the 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast' sheds light on this essential virtue. Hosted by the insightful Craig M. from Denny, Scotland, the episode features daily readings for January 23rd that revolve around the theme of tolerance. Craig kicks off by acknowledging that everyone, including ourselves, can be emotionally unwell and often wrong.
Recognizing this helps us develop true tolerance and a deeper understanding of love for others. Craig reads from a variety of AA resources, such as 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day', 'A.A. Thought for the Day', 'Daily Reflections', 'Big Book Quote', 'Just for Today', and 'As Bill Sees It'. These readings offer a treasure trove of insights and practical advice for anyone on the path to recovery.
One standout point is how honesty might get us sober, but tolerance keeps us that way. Craig explains that addiction often makes us irritable and impatient, leading to conflicts. Cultivating tolerance helps us manage these emotions and avoid the turmoil that can trigger relapse. Another crucial theme Craig touches on is the importance of active involvement in the recovery process. He emphasizes taking responsibility for our lives and facing challenges head-on.
Instead of running away from problems, embracing them with gratitude and a willingness to learn can lead to personal growth and satisfaction. Craig also reminds us that sobriety isn't meant to be dull. A.A. members aren't a glum lot; there's joy and fun to be found in a sober life. By adopting a positive attitude and avoiding cynicism, we can find fulfillment and happiness in our journey. Faith and spirituality also play a significant role in recovery.
Craig notes that many alcoholics have an inherent capacity for faith, love, and worship. Living in God's presence provides the strength and joy needed to overcome addiction. This involves surrendering to God's will and being open to His guidance. The episode covers various other topics like financial responsibility in sobriety, overcoming denial, and living in God's presence. Whether you're new to sobriety or have years of experience, this episode offers valuable insights for everyone.
