Sandy B. - AA Speaker - "Everything is Perception" 12-Step Alcoholism Recovery

Sandy B. is at it again with this POWERFUL share on the topic of "everything is perception." From the steps, to our relationships, to our work relationships, and even life and death, it is amazing how much comes down to our own perceptions of things. Sandy always includes useful and practical spiritual stories and antidotes and this tape is one of my favorites! Prepared to be taken to a different place! MUST LISTEN! :)

24 years sober and just went through the worst "emotional sobriety relapse" ever! It was in the making for at least 2 years. I didn't drink but I was still very - very ill. All because I DID NOT CHOOSE GOD! Oh, I love God, I talk to Him and seek Him. But I was so out there in FEAR that He was pushed out. Honestly, it was being in a sober blackout! I don't know if you can relate but I am on the mend and looking to re-work my steps on ALL those fears. They were ALL fear based. There is a reason we do a fears list in our 4th step. I am ready to look again... work again... change again.

[@biglee3107]

Hope your well Marsha well done for surrendering again. 🙏

[@jeffrey5682]

Thanks for the inspiration Marsha. I’m also looking to do my steps again. Having a great life in sobriety, but find myself drifting away from God a day at a time. 😌

[@tanyaanderson8779]

Marsha, I can relate. Never had the want to drink but, those fears, pride resurfaced! Praying for you

[@brentroman4265]

I know exactly what you mean. This is something we don't talk about enough, openly. And it happens to all of us. I struggle with the same place. Your doing great. I promise

This was the best speech I’ve ever heard in AA

[@mozerm]

This is a great message. When he talks about the fact there’s no point to regretting mistakes he’s talking about how free will is an illusion. You did what you did because in that moment it’s all you could do. It’s very freeing to understand this. I love Sandy. One of the best AA speakers ever.

[@davidbarnes1357]

This man obviously has a tremendous amount of both sobriety and serenity and surely lives in conscious contact with his Higher Power (G-d). I just with he, and a lot of other speakers for that matter, would not share there philosophy about reality and or the nature of G-d.

[@simon12332]

Spiritual life works, which breeds illusion you don't need it. It's only a theory until you pass some tests. So ask for MORE help. Work the 6th n 7th on loop. Problems Not resolved, removed by perspective shift

[@tammyjanzen151]

10 months sober here

[@realdill3569]

Need a sponsor I need sponsee, how convenient...the fear you can break down by writing it down each fear is stemming from another eventually you'll find all your fears are originated from 1 single fear of death. You have to get to a place where it's 2nd nature to depend on God you don't have to ask him to do songs he's already gonna do this will reduce your praying for certain things but you'll always find comfort in prayer. I need out of my comfort zone to grow my character therefore I simply understand everything is God's will and do the next right thing

[@Denise0752]

Would like to know what the books were called

[@alexkirk5879]

Big book of Alcoholics Anonymous, 12 and 12 of a a 24 hours a day book, Day by day; meditations for daily reading

[@abdullahibnyahya88]

He was referencing non AA literature I believe. I think AAs often are intellectually incurious and don't look beyond the horizon of their official literature. Bill W himself is a perfect argument against this sort of attitude, one glance at the titles in his library and you can see that he read widely from a variety of authors and sources. There is a reference in one of the books, I think maybe as bill sees it, that refers to AA as a spiritual kindergarten of sorts. It gives us our orientation and a toolkit but we are meant to search more fully and resolutely for God and to grow in our understanding and love of him
