#150 When the Going Gets Rough (June 14) - Christine K (Fairfax, VA‪)‬ Daily Reflection Podcast

    • Mental Health

Christine K. from Fairfax, VA shares on today's Daily Reflection entitled When the Going Gets Rough.

WHEN THE GOING GETS ROUGH
It is a design for living that works in rough going.
— ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 15
When I came to A.A., I realized that A.A. worked wonderfully to help keep me sober. But could it work on real life problems, not concerned with drinking? I had my doubts. After being sober for more than two years I got my answer. I lost my job, developed physical problems, my diabetic father lost a leg, and someone I loved left me for another — and all of this happened during a two-week period. Reality crashed in, yet A.A. was there to support, comfort, and strengthen me. The principles I had learned during my early days of sobriety became a mainstay of my life, for not only did I come through, but I never stopped being able to help newcomers. A.A. taught me not to be overwhelmed, but rather to accept and understand my life as it unfolded.
