Not to steal Rusty Zipper's thunder...but, there's another new game in town.

It's called...

Survivor A-Z

with your host...

Likable Larry and his adorable assistant...Priscilla Perspicacious

Sure, we know all about the character defects/flaws...and, we know it's important to work on them. But, if we look beyond those shortcomings, surely we can find some positive character traits.

It really is O.K. to like ourselves! If there was nothing to like and worth saving, we wouldn't have come this far. And, when you think back to where we started on this recovery journey, we truly are SURVIVORS!

So, let's start the game...

If we were just getting to know each other,

what are some of the things about you,

that would make me want to hang out with you,

and get to know you better!?!

Everyone pick up a machete,

and cut through the tangled underbrush of ugly flaws



until you recognize a positive character trait!!!

Ah, hah! I didn't have to look too far...

I do believe I'm

Compassionate

grateful2b

empathic

Astro

Loving.

Tolerant.

Thanks JN!

Hey--thanks for starting this game. It's too easy, especially in early sobriety, to focus on our thoughts. And boy, don't I know it.

Okay, here's a few things that make me a great person:

I'm intelligent
I'm funny
I'm oh so sassy


Thanks for letting me share!!

Jersey Nonny

Sense of humor...yes! It certainly does help.

I once heard an AA speaker say, "If you think God doesn't have a sense of humor...just take a look around the room." We instinctively did...and burst out laughing.
