In this heartfelt episode of AA Morning Snippets, Alyssa takes listeners on a reflective journey to kickstart their day with purpose and hope. As an alcoholic herself, Alyssa begins with a moment of silence for those who are suffering and recovering, offering a gentle reminder of the community that surrounds them. She recites the Serenity Prayer, encouraging acceptance and courage in the face of life's challenges.
The episode then moves into daily reflections from AA Comes of Age, focusing on resisting the urge to assume that success in one area makes one a saviour for others. Alyssa emphasises the importance of AA groups in providing support and sharing experiences to help alcoholics find a new way of life full of happiness and freedom. The conversation touches on the dangers of rationalisation and how it can lead back to old habits.
Alyssa shares a poignant letter from 1959 that warns against the slippery slope of justifying slips and how rationalising can lead one back to the bottle. She also discusses the ease with which alcoholics can access dangerous drugs and the lack of judgment that often accompanies their use. Ending with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa offers a comforting ritual to conclude the episode, reminding listeners to keep coming back to the support network that AA provides.
This episode is a thoughtful exploration of sobriety, community, and the daily struggles faced by those in recovery. If you're looking for a supportive start to your day, Alyssa's reflections might just be what you need.
