Sandy B - AA Speaker - "AA is EXTREMELY Spiritual!"

[@wullb7930]

What an amazing human Sandy was. I’ve listened to his shares for most of my 15 years of Sobriety and I keep learning from him to this day. God bless you Sandy RIP ❤️

[@amandaboyd1198]

I am 😊

[@joannamilano3542]

Yes indeed❤best wishes to you too. So thankful for the 12step program and allowing God to run my life

[@freddysteady1547]

Remove my low self esteem. My neediness for attention. My obsessive judgmental mind. My need to control situations. My perfectionism. My obsessive victimhood n self pity. These are my defects. Only by telling someone my whole life story. Childhood. Feeling the uselessness of the flaws. Asking God daily to take them away. Because I’m enough. As are YOU.

[@josieferraris2553]

prayers you are not so hard upon yourself, just the recognition of pain is growth, never is self pity. our ego forbids a good cry, but are not worth a good cry to ourselves? YES we are worth a good fuxxxx cry! so go for it! love you 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@joannamilano3542]

I've been trying to understand all this since 2010 and this got me the closest to understanding...

[@joannamilano3542]

🙏hope you are finding the program the 12 steps really awesome

[@moniqueloupe8867]

I think this is the first share I ever heard by him. I listen to his shares repeatedly.And it always hits me in a different way, depending on where I am emotionally spiritually mentally

[@markellmessmore440]

Sandy was a beautiful person & lived the principals of AA. His knowledge of AA & how he talks of it makes me want to get deeper in our literature. Grateful we have his tapes to listen to. RIP Sandy.

Enjoyed listening interpretation of the sixth step

[@notbrendon]

One of his best ones, without a doubt. Does anyone know what exactly he was doing with the handkerchief at the end?

[@johncrossan8227]

Sandy.B is the man. Those who have ears!

[@jasonslayton2970]

Wow when he talks about the spirituality of imperfection and paradoxes and ..... wow!! Thank you.

[@bentompkins7854]

Those Saturday mornings at the NIH helped me greatly in early sobriety.

[@susanclarke2439]

Very important to absorb this ....

[@charlesrosebushes7748]

I drank everyday to relieve the mental madness, so why can't I work the steps daily for a daily reprieve

[@eps8th]

I want to get there like Sandy B

[@Robert-fv3vn]

You're there.

[@JaySoul711]

@@Robert-fv3vn consciously there? Maybe. But we don’t want to be those long term AA guys who come in and are just “good” - they have no true spiritual connection to their higher power. They seem to rely too much on humans.

[@moondrop362]

The warning label! So funny, I relate.

[@robertt5176]

Sandy died at an AA meeting. I heard him speak at Monday Night Speakers group in St Petersburg 2014. Shortly before his death.

[@TheAxecutioner]

Amen !!

[@gabrielsweeney4331]

Gabriel Sweeney He's not dead. He's alive and well as a spirit creature some place else.

1:22:30. Promises in reverse. Classic!

[@glenarledge1825]

Usually the format is to tell What it was like, what happened and what it’s like now. The what happened is the transformation. This part is rarely done. Just like here. Not enough focus on that aspect. AAs at time appear to want to be entertaining. Notice how he like many skip over that and essentially speak of the “results” of the program. He dosent go in depth on the transformation itself. Nieither do most meetings.

[@joannamilano3542]

To get a sponsor and to go through step 4 including resentments and my character defects and to inventory it each night is ideal for me, I know I want to do it every night, I am starting to do inventory most nights,is helpful,making me aware each evening of character defects and things I need to change. Best wishes. Try another group or online as well. There is a worldwide accessible online, from1770 Agnes Waters in Australia, available 24/7 on zoom,I love this.

[@neilwalker1078]

Or perhaps this entire pitch is in the transformation. How numerous problems (beyond losing the power of choice in drink) continued to arise and how the speaker must continue to let go of ego, pray for the willingness to have his defects be removed (100%) and live as much of his time in a place where their in a position of neutrality (“floating” as one man said recently). Not disturbed (chewing on a resentment) or trying to take from life. Instead trying to be in ultimate service of others. Along with all of the anecdotes that arise out of these continued failures: issues in relationships, loss of work, financial instability, fears, depression, unhappiness. Yea, “he’s funny” but I heard a pattern of solution becoming more and more easily tapped into. Isn’t that perhaps in and of itself the journey of “transformation”?
