What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this morning's episode, Alyssa, an alcoholic, opens with a moment of silence for those battling addiction and their loved ones. She shares the serenity prayer, a cornerstone for many in recovery, which asks for serenity, courage, and wisdom. Alyssa highlights the importance of action in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), reminding us that it's more than just a set of principles; it's a community of alcoholics in motion.
She recounts her journey from being newly sober to actively participating in her AA group, realising the profound satisfaction of doing 12-step work. Alyssa speaks candidly about the joy of witnessing newcomers grow and how service work recharges her spirit. Despite being a beginner in service, she finds herself receiving more than she gives. Her reflections underscore the idea that sobriety is a gift that multiplies when shared.
The episode closes with the Lord's Prayer and a heartfelt plea for sobriety, reinforcing the communal and spiritual aspects of recovery. This episode is a heartfelt reminder of the strength found in community and the endless possibilities that sobriety offers.
