Second is the attempt to control feelings by medicating them with mood-altering chemicals. First is an attempt to control the behavior of others, a strategy that addicts cling to despite its repeated failure. What blocks some alcoholics and addicts from achieving serenity is their intense desire to achieve a sense of absolute control-one that is simply not possible for human beings. In the book Alcoholics Anonymous (published by AA World Services), Bill described the core trait of alcoholics as self-centeredness-something he called "self-will run riot." He further described the alcoholic as "an actor who wants to run the whole show is forever trying to arrange the lights, the ballet, the scenery and the rest of the players in his own way." Bill's solution: "First of all, we had to quit playing God." The prayer’s message about acceptance echoes insights from Bill W., cofounder of AA. The Serenity Prayer accurately expresses a central problem of addiction and prescribes a timeless solution. Living the Serenity Prayer in Recovery from Alcohol or Drug Addictionįor many, the first verse of the Serenity Prayer serves as a daily touchstone, reminding us that to achieve serenity, we must approach each moment with wisdom and courage. The Serenity Prayer spread both through Niebuhr’s sermons and church groups in the 1930s and 1940s, and was later adopted and popularized by Alcoholics Anonymous and other Twelve Step programs. There it was credited to American theologian Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971). Many AA members were first exposed to the prayer in 1948, when it was quoted in the Grapevine, an AA periodical. The Serenity Prayer has been variously attributed to an ancient Sanskrit text, Aristotle, St. The full Serenity Prayer text has stronger religious overtones.Īlso there are conflicting accounts of the prayer's origin. There are several versions of the Serenity Prayer, each with slightly different wording that support groups have adopted. And, although the origin is thought to be Christian, the Serenity Prayer is applicable to your daily life regardless of religion or spiritual belief system. The Serenity Prayer meshes perfectly with the spirituality of AA's Twelve Steps. In fact, these 25 words are heard in most every AA meeting and widely taken as a succinct statement of a path to sanity and sobriety. Members of Alcoholics Anonymous have enthusiastically embraced this prayer-known as the Serenity Prayer-almost from the moment they discovered it.

Today's track is something I like to think I put a piece of my heart into, I've spent around 11 hours on this lil thing and I'd like to think it's some of my best work, ever!! Hope I haven't kept you waiting.I've been busy with some personal projects, schoolwork and the like, you know the deal. ![]() ![]() ![]() I mean, BT1 is kinda open world in the sense that you can go to different areas, but some of those areas are just gonna whoop my ass. It gets tiresome clearing out the Wine Cellar over and over again to gain enough levels to make it to the next floor. It's 100% "go as far as I can while killing baddies, run back and rest, repeat until I earn enough XP to level-up, then repeat again and hope I can get a little further." Just total grinding without anything else going on. I don't mean to slam anyone who still enjoys BT1, but it's literally "Monsters have taken over the town, I'm the only good guys left (except shop/tavern owners, monsters don't bother them for whatever reason), I've gotta find the Big Bad and kill him.and that's it." Nobody has me doing anything to give me reason for my characters to earn XP and increase their skills. What's got me getting bored is the total lack of quests. It's not the graphics that bother me, or the game engine, or using my imagination. The general answer I got (and agree with) was "it was all we had, hardware/software limitations, they were still trying to figure it out." If it wasn't, it was definitely in r/CRPG. I posted recently about "how did we ever make it through these CRPGs back then, with death just around every corner." I think it was here.

What defined Apple II games for me came much earlier in the life of the platform But Wasteland was the last Apple II game I ever bought, so that plays into it. Prince of Persia is a bit questionable for me as well, as I played it on the Mac much later on. If I were making the list I would probably strike Battle Chess and California Games from the list, as they came so late in the the cycle. A lot of the games on it were on multiple systems, so I think they more define computer games in the 1980s rather than the Apple II specifically.
