Join Wayne Giles as he reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey. In this Step 2 AA session, Wayne reflects on what we’ve learned about alcoholism from the Big Book—particularly its cunning, baffling, and powerful nature. But beyond these attributes, alcoholism is marked by an appalling lack of perspective: the inability to recognize that we keep doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results, despite knowing that the outcome will be the same.
“It’s the inability to see the suffering that we experienced even a week or a month ago.”
Wayne discusses how this lack of perspective is central to the struggle with addiction, trapping us in a cycle of repeated mistakes and suffering. This session encourages participants to break free from this cycle by embracing the insights offered in the Big Book, recognizing the patterns that have kept them bound to their addiction. By doing so, we can begin to cultivate a new perspective, one that allows us to see the reality of our situation and make the necessary changes for true recovery.
