The Set Aside Prayer (or lay aside prayer): Dear God, please set aside everything I think I know About myself, this book, my disease, these steps, and especially about you dear God so that I might have an open mind And a new experience with all these things. Please help me to see the truth.
You may think that there are a thousand different things being done in recovery, really there's just a thousand different ways of saying a few simple things.
Pancake Marathon
I see things with love or at the level of seeing that I have something to give by giving what I have, it is what I get to see; as this point I see that from the points of “giving what I have away.”
As to what am I giving away, well, the points of the pain of the ego, in its own right, as to see it as a tool to see things within in the points of life being me: the I AM, the parts of me that are truth upon life per say; the I AM before I become the I/ego.
See that in and of itself[i/ego] is then that point of finding the balance upon itself, to not shut the door on the past; yes, even with that past being with that timeless area’s of life itself: as to the points of what is the Absolutes [truth] by what is almost in its common understanding the opposite of life itself.
for the ultimate aspect of recovery as it touches on, that this is a spiritual program; being that the spiritual program one must find balance in things that are deemed spiritual from one's understanding of God/ as well as what is one's understanding of what is not than that of spiritual.
I would say that it is in its own right through the comprehension of what is the association of oneself with the ego, which is truly the same as comprehending Serenity once we lose interest in selfish things to gain interest in our fellows; to that of just a simple analogy that all things happen within: from just a simple aspects of itself that you interpret all things from inside of you [ the brain is inside the body and then in that right all things happen from within you].
So yes,
as I have progressed within my recovery and just life itself: being that it is a spiritual Avenue (path)/
affair ( as to keeping it simple of recovery)/ Within its own Simplicity to be that of just a path a journey ultimately summed up as the happenings of right now in this presence: of the present moment
( maybe highlighting what is the cheesy saying of: today is a gift it's called the present for a reason
[ as it simply say I've never heard someone refrain and call it a Cheesy saying: but that is still the same aspect of approach in their affair and yet have to come to arresting, such thought process: To be known and called once stingy thinking: that truly just highlights the problem: that is truly just the simplest explanation or complicated if you are unlearned and need a scholar or as a translator AKA a sponsor, that will help highlight that the problem is your thinking in the sense of itself of how you approached matters with pain and self-seeking(ego/I) motives
{more to the points of reacting}]
As to that then I would say it being the present well it's a gift and you get to open it up and see what's inside)
To what is the point in all of life itself to see things as a point in what life can happen, as To its approach to essentially being that of “ smelling the Roses:” as to what is simply to say in recovery “one step at a time:” As well as more commonly associated with that of spirituality “ there's only the now moment;” So then at this point I feel that it's very obvious to me and yet unobvious to those that of reading this that I'm approaching this from a spiritual standpoint: that of what is less ego and more of connection and unity of my higher power being that I am the Messenger of this message.
and as well as I think it is suiting and fitting too touch on the absolute of how poetic science States/Shares the god of their understanding, it “that energy is everything and energy cannot be destroyed it can just change form;” as from maybe something that I just focus on within itself into caring the message: being that I am just a trusted servant that is a leader that does not govern, to the Simplicity of itself that “ no one can God shame you/ no one can tell you that you're wrong in the way that you're thinking, yes they can defend themselves other than that there's nothing wrong with how you're approaching it: this upon itself holds true with that of practicing the principle by my interpretation of tradition 4 through 6;” As simply to say I would say the steps were in so simply as they have stated you can practice them in all your affairs: as yes it does help to have put the work in and to “work work work,”/ to be the one get to the points within seeing it as same as to “think think think.”
I suppose in a conclusion of what is stated here: being that this is the latter: per se of itself, I have come to a journey within myself, as All Things Are and can only be, that of what is then to see that the ego is just a tool for my comprehension of my absolute altruistic magnanimous nature within the thematic modalities through my interpretation to you; as I attempt to highlight my journey based through recovery Linguistics and that of bringing forth more of a levity and not of allowing myself to not rest on my laurels or that of itself of recovery no matter what flavor of recovery that may be: as to Simply say to give what I have and in that I'm a keep what I have to give.
for as simplest aspects of itself a piece of mind, that is in its simplest form the god of my understanding/ I call that serenity; truth in the matter of fact is that we all are aiming for what is ultimately known as Nirvana.

Recovery is a spiritual program that requires finding a balance between what is deemed spiritual and what is not. This balance comes from understanding one's ego. The ego can be a tool to find truth and balance, and not shutting the door on the past.
Recovery is a journey of the present moment. It is about giving what one has to give, and seeing things with love. One must work hard and think hard to progress in recovery.
The goal of recovery is to find peace and serenity.
Rephrased
I perceive things with love, or with the understanding that I have something to offer by giving what I have. This is what I am able to see from the perspective of "giving what I have away."
What am I giving away? The pain of the ego, to see it as a tool to understand life as me: the I AM, the parts of me that are truth. The I AM before I become the I/ego.
Finding balance within oneself means not shutting the door on the past, even with the past being timeless. This pertains to the Absolutes (truth) by what is almost the opposite of life itself.
The ultimate aspect of recovery is that it is a spiritual program. One must find balance in things that are deemed spiritual from one's understanding of God, as well as what is one's understanding of what is not spiritual.
Through comprehending one's association with the ego, one can truly comprehend Serenity once we lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. A simple analogy is that all things happen within; you interpret all things from inside of you (the brain is inside the body, and all things happen from within you).
As I have progressed in recovery and in life itself, I see it as a spiritual avenue, a path, a journey, ultimately the happenings of right now, in this present moment. The present is a gift; you get to open it up and see what's inside. The point in all of life itself is to see things as "smelling the roses," as to what is simply "one step at a time" in recovery, and "there's only the now moment" in spirituality. I am approaching this from a spiritual standpoint, with less ego and more connection and unity with my higher power.
Science states that energy is everything and energy cannot be destroyed; it can just change form. I am a trusted servant, a leader that does not govern. No one can tell you that you're wrong in the way that you're thinking; they can only defend themselves. There's nothing wrong with how you're approaching it. This holds true with practicing the principles by my interpretation of traditions 4 through 6. The steps can be practiced in all your affairs; it does help to have put the work in, to "work work work," to "think think think."
In conclusion, I have come to a journey within myself. All things are and can only be. The ego is just a tool for my comprehension of my absolute altruistic nature. I attempt to highlight my journey based on recovery linguistics and that of bringing forth more levity. I do not allow myself to rest on my laurels or that of recovery, no matter what flavor of recovery that may be. I simply give what I have, and in that, I keep what I have to give.
A piece of mind, in its simplest form, is the god of my understanding; I call that serenity. The truth is that we are all aiming for what is ultimately known as Nirvana.
Elaborate
The core principle I've come to understand is that everything can be approached with love and a willingness to contribute. This perspective allows me to see that by giving what I have, I receive in return. This realization stems from the understanding that true giving involves relinquishing the ego's pain.
The ego, while often seen as negative, can be a valuable tool for self-awareness and recognizing the true self—the "I AM" that exists beyond the ego. Finding balance involves acknowledging the ego without dwelling on the past, even when the past holds timeless truths. This balance is crucial in recovery, as it is a spiritual journey that requires reconciling the spiritual and the non-spiritual.
True recovery lies in understanding the ego and achieving serenity by shifting focus from selfish desires to genuine concern for others. This analogy highlights that all experiences and interpretations originate from within oneself.
As I've progressed in recovery and in life, I've recognized that it's a spiritual path—a journey that unfolds in the present moment. This awareness aligns with the idea that "today is a gift," emphasizing the importance of being present. While some may dismiss this as cliché, it underscores the need to overcome negative thought patterns and embrace a mindset of gratitude and openness.
The present moment is an opportunity to experience life fully, to "smell the roses" and take things "one step at a time." This perspective reflects a spiritual approach that prioritizes connection and unity with a higher power.
Science supports this spiritual view, stating that energy is constant and only changes form. This resonates with the idea that I am a messenger, a servant leader who doesn't impose control. This principle aligns with the belief that no one can dictate one's thoughts or beliefs, as long as they respect others' autonomy. This approach reflects the principles of practicing acceptance and understanding in all aspects of life.
Ultimately, my journey has led me to see the ego as a tool for understanding my true nature. By sharing my experiences through the lens of recovery and spirituality, I aim to inspire others and avoid complacency. My goal is to continue giving and, in doing so, maintain my capacity for giving.
True peace of mind, or serenity, is the essence of my understanding of a higher power. This pursuit of inner peace is a universal goal, akin to the concept of Nirvana.
Formal
One perceives matters through a lens of love or recognizes an opportunity to contribute by sharing one's resources, and in doing so, gains further insight. This perspective stems from the practice of relinquishing personal possessions.
Specifically, what is being relinquished pertains to the pain inflicted by the ego. This pain can be viewed as a mechanism for discerning aspects within oneself that align with the fundamental essence of existence: the I AM, the innate truths inherent in life itself. This represents the I AM before the emergence of the ego.
The ego, in itself, serves as a means of establishing equilibrium. This involves not severing ties with the past, including the timeless dimensions of life itself, which encompasses the absolute truths and their perceived opposites.
Recovery, in its ultimate aspect, is fundamentally a spiritual endeavor. This requires achieving a balance between what one considers spiritual, based on one's understanding of the divine, and what one deems non-spiritual.
The comprehension of one's association with the ego equates to achieving serenity. This occurs upon relinquishing self-centered pursuits in favor of genuine concern for others. Analogously, all experiences occur internally, as the brain, and consequently all perceptions, reside within the individual.
Advancing within one's recovery journey and life itself, recognized as a spiritual path, simplifies the process. Recovery becomes a journey characterized by the present moment, the here and now. This echoes the adage that "today is a gift, it's called the present for a reason." Dismissing this as a cliché does not negate its underlying truth. Resistance to this principle often indicates a restrictive mindset, characterized by stingy thinking. This highlights a core issue: the approach to matters is often tainted by pain and self-serving motivations (ego/I). This relates to reactive tendencies. The present is a gift to be unwrapped and examined.
The purpose of life is to perceive experiences as opportunities. This approach can be likened to "smelling the roses," or in recovery terms, taking "one step at a time." Spiritually, this translates to "there is only the now moment." It is evident, although perhaps not to all readers, that this discourse adopts a spiritual perspective, emphasizing detachment from the ego and fostering connection with a higher power. The speaker serves as a messenger for this message.
Furthermore, it is pertinent to acknowledge the perspective of science, which postulates that "energy is everything and energy cannot be destroyed; it can only change form." Focusing on conveying this message as a trusted servant who leads without governing implies that no one can impose their beliefs upon another or dictate the validity of their thinking. While individuals may offer differing viewpoints, one's personal approach remains valid. This principle aligns with the interpretation of traditions 4 through 6. The steps outlined for practice in all affairs necessitate effort and contemplation, akin to diligent work or thought.
In conclusion, this represents a personal journey of realization. All existence can be perceived as an opportunity to recognize the ego as a tool for comprehending one's inherent altruistic and magnanimous nature. This understanding is conveyed through the lens of recovery linguistics. The aim is to foster a sense of levity and avoid complacency in the recovery process, regardless of its specific form. The fundamental principle is to share what one possesses, which, in turn, ensures the preservation of what one has to offer.
Ultimately, peace of mind, or serenity, constitutes an understanding of the divine. This pursuit aligns with the concept of Nirvana.

Alright, so I see things differently now. When I give what I have, I realize it's what I get to see. It’s about giving away the pain of the ego as a tool to understand life and myself—the "I AM" before the ego.
The ego, in itself, is about finding balance and not shutting the door on the past, even the parts that feel like the opposite of life. Recovery is a spiritual journey, finding balance in our understanding of God and what we think isn't spiritual.
Understanding our association with the ego is like finding serenity once we lose interest in selfish things and care about others. It's all happening inside us. As I’ve grown in recovery, it's become a spiritual path, a journey in the present moment. Today is a gift, right? It's called the present for a reason.
At first, I thought these were just cheesy sayings, but they point to a real problem: our stingy, self-seeking thinking. It’s about how we approach things with pain and ego.
Recovery is seeing life as a place where things can happen, "smelling the roses," taking "one step at a time." It’s also like saying, "There's only the now moment." I'm coming at this from a spiritual angle, focusing less on ego and more on connection to my higher power.
Science says energy is everything and can't be destroyed, just changed. I'm a messenger, a trusted servant, a leader who doesn't govern. No one can tell you you're wrong in how you're thinking. This aligns with practicing principles like Tradition 4 through 6. The steps are simple; you can practice them in all areas of life. You have to "work work work" and "think think think."
In conclusion, the ego is a tool to understand my altruistic nature. I'm sharing my journey through recovery language, bringing levity. It's about giving what I have and keeping what I have to give. Peace of mind, which I call serenity, is my understanding of God. Ultimately, we're all aiming for Nirvana.

Alternative viewpoint

Additionally, some of the language used is convoluted and difficult to understand. This could make the speaker's message inaccessible to those who need it. Finally, the speaker seems to equate recovery with achieving Nirvana, which could be discouraging to someone early in their recovery journey.
You may think that there are a thousand different things being done in recovery, really there's just a thousand different ways of saying a few simple things.

What is harmony to me? What is my understanding of serenity?
Rephrased
To find harmony, I must first define it for myself. What does harmony mean to me? By asking these questions, I can identify what brings me peace and serenity in the moment.
Elaborate
The pursuit of harmony necessitates a deep introspection into its essence. It's a personal journey, where the definition of harmony aligns with one's own experiences, beliefs, and values.
Asking oneself "What is harmony to me?" opens a pathway to understanding the unique nature of this concept. It invites reflection on what brings a sense of peace, balance, and contentment. Is it the absence of conflict, the presence of inner peace, or a state of synchronized existence with the surrounding world?
Delving deeper into this inquiry allows for the exploration of various facets of harmony. It may encompass physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. It could involve harmonious relationships with oneself and others, a balanced lifestyle, or a sense of interconnectedness with the universe.
Through this process of self-discovery, the concept of harmony evolves from an abstract notion to a tangible experience. It becomes a guiding principle, shaping thoughts, actions, and interactions with the world.
Ultimately, the pursuit of harmony leads to a state of serenity and simplicity. It's a continuous journey of self-awareness and alignment with one's true nature. By understanding and embodying the personal meaning of harmony, one can cultivate a life filled with peace, joy, and fulfillment.
Formal
One must first define harmony. Having posed this question, one is then able to determine a personal definition of harmony.

Summarize
The text reflects on the personal definition of harmony and serenity, emphasizing a process of self-inquiry and acting on one's understanding of those concepts in the moment.
Bullet points
First, I must ask myself, "What is harmony?"
Since I've asked myself this question, I get to ask myself, "What is harmony to me?"
By asking myself all these things, I come to a point where I get to act upon what is in that very moment harmony or what seems to be the simplicity of my comprehension of serenity.
Empathetic
It can feel overwhelming to find harmony, but it starts with a simple question: "What is harmony?" From there, you can begin to explore what harmony means to you personally. This self-reflection can lead to a deeper understanding of what brings you peace and serenity, allowing you to act in ways that align with your values and create a sense of balance in your life.
Alternative viewpoint
While the pursuit of harmony is often seen as a personal journey, it can also be viewed as a collective endeavor. Harmony can exist not only within oneself but also in our relationships with others and the world around us. By recognizing our interconnectedness and striving for understanding and cooperation, we can create a more harmonious society where everyone feels valued and respected.

The Present Moment as a Spiritual Path

### Conclusion
The document blends spirituality, recovery principles, and introspection to advocate for a life of humility, presence, and service. Its strength lies in reframing challenges (e.g., ego, past trauma) as opportunities for growth. While deeply rooted in spiritual language, its core messages—self-awareness, community, and living in the moment—are universally applicable.
For further exploration, consider pairing its principles with actionable steps (e.g., journaling, meditation) or discussing its themes in peer support settings.

### Simplified Interpretation & Progress Highlights
Your document is a daily compass for spiritual recovery and self-discovery. Here’s how I interpret its core parts and your implied progress:
---
#### 1. Daily Surrender & Humility
- Key Part: The Set Aside Prayer (Page 2) asks to release preconceptions and ego.
- Your Progress: By revisiting this daily, you’re practicing humility and openness—a sign you’re actively working to detach from rigid thinking and stay receptive to growth.
---
#### 2. Ego as a Tool, Not an Enemy
- Key Part: The ego is framed as a tool to understand your “I AM” (true self) and balance past/present (Pages 4–9).
- Your Progress: You’re moving beyond fighting the ego to using it for self-awareness. For example, reflecting on phrases like “giving what I have away” suggests you’re shifting from self-centeredness to service.
---
#### 3. Living in the “Now”
- Key Part: Phrases like “today is a gift” and “one step at a time” emphasize the present moment.
- Your Progress: Prioritizing the “now” means you’re likely reducing anxiety about the past/future and grounding yourself in actionable steps (e.g., daily mantras).
---
#### 4. Harmony = Inner Peace + Community
- Key Part: Harmony is defined through honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness (Pages 13–15).
- Your Progress: Asking “What is harmony to me?” shows you’re defining peace on your terms and aligning actions with values. Reaching out to others (Page 23) signals you’re avoiding isolation and building connections.
---
#### 5. Slogans as Anchors
- Key Part: Slogans like “Let go and let God” simplify complex ideas (Page 17).
- Your Progress: Using these daily means you’re internalizing principles (e.g., surrender, trust) and turning them into habits.
---
#### 6. Carrying the Message
- Key Part: Encouraging others to share their recovery journey (Page 23).
- Your Progress: By inviting others to “carry a message,” you’re solidifying your own growth through teaching—a sign of confidence and commitment.
