Nothing pays off like restraint of tongue and pen
Ever wondered how to maintain your sobriety while navigating life's ups and downs? This episode of the Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast, hosted by Sarah N. from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, dives into the theme of restraint. Sarah reads from a variety of AA resources, sharing wisdom on how to stay calm and composed even when old habits threaten to resurface.
The readings include excerpts from the 'Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions', 'Daily Reflections', and the 'Big Book', each offering unique perspectives on handling fear, anger, and the urge to drink. One of the standout moments is a reflection on how self-centred fear can trigger our defects. Sarah shares a powerful prayer from Birmingham, Alabama, where an individual recounts their journey from desperation to divine intervention.
They prayed for strength in a filthy bathroom and emerged with newfound resolve to stay sober. This anecdote serves as a reminder that no matter how low you feel, there is always hope and help available. The episode also touches on the importance of making amends without coming across as preachy. Instead of boasting about spiritual awakenings, it's more impactful to demonstrate genuine goodwill through actions.
This approach not only helps in personal recovery but also leaves a positive impression on others. If you're struggling with alcohol or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical advice and emotional support. It's a blend of personal stories and timeless wisdom that can help you navigate the complexities of sobriety with grace and strength. Tune in for daily doses of inspiration and remember, nothing pays off like restraint of tongue and pen.
