Embracing Tolerance: Kirsty S. on Finding Strength in Sobriety

Tolerance, honesty with ourselves and others gets us sober, but it is tolerance that keeps us that way.
What does it mean to truly embrace tolerance on your journey to sobriety? In this episode of the Transitions Daily podcast, Kirsty S. from the Midlands in the United Kingdom dives into the vital role that tolerance plays in maintaining a sober life. Drawing from a variety of AA literature, Kirsty shares readings and reflections that highlight how tolerance can be a cornerstone of recovery.
Kirsty emphasizes that while honesty with ourselves and others is crucial for getting sober, it's tolerance that helps us stay that way. She points out that learning to accept and tolerate others, even when disagreements arise, is essential for long-term sobriety. This acceptance fosters a supportive community where everyone can thrive. Through personal anecdotes and AA quotes, Kirsty illustrates how tolerance manifests in everyday life.
For instance, she notes that many alcoholics will eventually return to a group they initially disliked because they realize they cannot recover alone. This adaptability and willingness to adjust are key components of tolerance in action. Kirsty also addresses the fear and doubt that often accompany the decision to seek help. She reassures listeners that they are not alone and that connecting with others who have faced similar struggles can provide the hope and strength needed to persevere.
Prayer and meditation are also highlighted as tools for finding peace and security, reminding us that a higher power is always present on our journey. Ultimately, Kirsty's message is one of hope and encouragement. By embracing tolerance, seeking support, and trusting in a power greater than ourselves, we can overcome addiction and lead fulfilling, sober lives. Tune in to hear Kirsty's inspiring insights and take the first step towards a brighter future.
