Get the buttons here!Larry S: From Struggles to Strength - A Journey of Sobriety
And when it was over, this big guy bigger than a lot of y 'all stumpbusters in here- but this boy was big he was about- and all them cats in iceland look like vikings and they don't talk English very well. And he started praying to a god of his understanding in a language that I had no comprehension of, and all of a sudden I felt the moisture dripping off my beard.
Larry S, a southern gentleman with a knack for humor, shares his remarkable story at the 2014 Serenity by the Sea event in this episode of Sober Cast. But don't let his wit fool you; Larry's path through addiction is anything but a laughing matter. He opens up about his battles with alcohol, drugs, and even AIDS, shedding light on the dark corners of his past.
What stands out in Larry's tale is his emphasis on humility—a cornerstone in his recovery journey through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Larry's narrative is rich with gratitude for the old-timers in AA who offered him unwavering support when he was at his lowest. Their love and guidance were pivotal in his journey towards sobriety. He also delves into the power of prayer, sharing how it has been a vital tool in maintaining his sobriety over the years.
In a candid discussion, Larry touches on the distinction between heavy drinkers and true alcoholics, highlighting how AA's fellowship can be a lifeline for those who feel utterly powerless over alcohol. He speaks passionately about the Big Book of AA, describing it as a source of profound wisdom and hope for those grappling with addiction. Larry's story is one of resilience and redemption.
It serves as a powerful reminder that no matter how deep one sinks, there's always a way out through the fellowship and support of AA. If you or someone you know is facing the challenges of addiction, Larry's story is a beacon of hope that tomorrow can indeed be brighter.
