“A Vision for You” isn’t a promise of an easy life — it’s a promise of a different way to live. It speaks directly to the alcoholic who feels hopeless, exhausted, and unsure whether anything can truly change. This chapter doesn’t minimize the pain of alcoholism; it tells the truth about it — and then offers hope grounded in experience, not theory.

The vision isn’t about perfection, instant peace, or escaping reality. It’s about freedom from obsession, connection instead of isolation, usefulness instead of self-centeredness, and a life no longer ruled by fear, alcohol, or self-will.

In today’s Daily Trudge, we talk about:

  • What the Big Book really means by “a vision”
  • Why hope has to be realistic to be believable
  • The shift from despair to possibility
  • Living life on life’s terms without alcohol
  • Freedom from obsession, not freedom from effort
  • Connection, fellowship, and shared experience
  • Why this chapter still speaks to people today

“A Vision for You” isn’t about who you should become. It’s about who you can become — one day at a time.

If you’re struggling to imagine a future without alcohol, this chapter exists for you. The vision doesn’t arrive all at once — it unfolds as we stay, work, and live the program.
