Grateful I am studying today, a little later than most but still, I’m doing it.
Grateful to be:
Alive
Sober
Seemingly healthy
Not currently depressed
To have friends
To have family
To have shelter
To be warm
To be studying even though I question it sometimes
Able to use TS
Able to attend meetings with regulars
Able to work the steps now with my sponsors…
Grateful to feel a sense of warmth, happiness, love, and I suppose gratitude when writing this. Something I haven’t always known how to feel, and something I think I truely am learning to know how to express and subsequently feel. I’m grateful I can emotionally, physiologically feel it, perhaps not currently spiritually, but grateful for the opportunity to work towards that trifecta…
I am grateful for my health.
I am grateful for my family.
I am grateful for all the time we spend together.
I am grateful for an openmind.
I am grateful for other recovering addicts.
I am grateful for the dragonflies at the lake today, for the warmth they filled my spirit with and the smile that crossed my face when I thought of Courtney and the special meaning they have to her.
I am grateful for the sound of the blackchinned humming bird and how I know when it is them at my feeder. We have been blessed this year with a few, rare occasion in this area.
I am grateful for all the veggies and fruit that our garden is providing us with. I love summer.
I am grateful for the 573 mornings I have woken up clean.
I am grateful that people take the time to type out their gratitude because reading others gratitude fills my spirit as much as expressing my own.
Thanks for being such an instrumental part of my recovery.
I’m grateful to God thank you for helping me make it through another day clean and sober. I’m grateful for all the joy I get reading your shares on this thread thanks to all the gratidudes, keep it up please. I’m grateful that I got a nice recognition cake today from the treatment center. I’m grateful that I got to help make pizza there today. I’m grateful that I got to chair an AA meeting there tonight. I’m grateful that I got to play some cards with the guys afterwards. I’m grateful that I am home safe in bed with some late night snacks. I’m grateful that my parents agreed to come visit on Monday morning it’s still Saturday night here but I’m excited to see them already.
God bless you all. &
p.s. If you are struggling it’s ok, ask for help or help someone. It works. You rock. Ya you!!
Day 994,
Grateful being sober.
Happy ans a bit excited that I will go and see 2 kittens in some hours that I will maybe take. What I read, they are Perser Mix, they are good for living indoors as I cannot let them out.
Grateful that I am sober as being sober I am way more effective killing mosquitos in my room.
Grateful being alive and living in a country without war. Grateful I can make my money in a decent way. Grateful for our social system.
Grateful for good health care system. Grateful for enough insulin in my fridge. Grateful that sometimes I see this what I take for granted every day. That I walk out on the streets without fear of being raped or killed for nothing.
Grateful to wake up not hungover. Grateful to be able to handle things drama free when my washer breaks . Grateful for my home, dog, and job . For this group that helps me focus and stay sober.
Good morning all,
I’m grateful that I’m up very early this morning, drinking coffee while wrapped up in a blanket and listening to the rain come down. I’m grateful for yesterday, that I was able to help my mom get my Granny moved into a better ground floor apartment. She has a beautiful view of the pool, a beautiful hibiscus bush on the patio, and best of all, no flight of concrete stairs for an 87 year old to climb and descend! I’m grateful that my sister came to help as well. I’m grateful that I saw on the check in thread that @M-be-free49 had a birthday-HAPPY BIRTHDAY !! And the mug is perfect!
Everyone have a wonderful day
I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful for all the rain and my sump pump working it’s ass off.
I’m grateful for the very brief and bright morning sunshine that changed into clouds of fog by the time I fed everyone and made coffee.
Grateful for mountain weather. Sunshine and monsoons.
I’m grateful Benson is on my lap.
I’m grateful for music and movies and laughter.
I’m grateful for the touch of cat whiskers on my face in the morning while in bed.
I’m grateful I can walk the 3 and a half mile trail in my hood today if I so choose.
Grateful for my Pilates Reformer workout yesterday and that I was actually able to do a 3:30 plank.
Grateful for gratitude and gratitudes and TS. I prefer the person I am when I’m sober.
Today I am grateful for the sleeping in that took place this morning - it was necessary and restorative. I am grateful for the sober day I had yesterday taking it as it comes and for the day I will have today, where building my self love and sharing it with others will be the main focus. I am grateful for our home and for my son’s love and growth. I am grateful for the lake nearby where I can share coves and cricket sounds with my friend as we paddle along. I am ever so grateful for the individual who started this gratitude thread, whomever they may be, allowing us drunks and addicts to recommit to what is most important on a daily basis. Wishing good days to everyone!!
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to stay clean and sober. I’m grateful for all my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that my housemate and friend Dylan is back home after another stay at treatment. I’m grateful that I have my NA homegroup tonight where I have accepted the nomination to be the greeter. I’m grateful that I slept well. I’m grateful that I can afford to order in some dinner and have some rice and chicken. I’m grateful for music, excersise and laughter.
God bless you all. &
Grateful for the loooong sleep that I had last night. I really needed it. Feel so much better today.
Grateful for the long hot shower that I’m just about to have.
Grateful that I woke up with no hangover, no upset stomach, no heartburn and no anxiety. No surprise that they all disappear when we stop systematically poisoning ourselves.
Grateful for the long FaceTime call that I had with my parents yesterday evening. They were on great form.
Grateful that my 16 year old daughter wants to walk with me today. She needs to be more active and I love her company.
Grateful that being sober has been such a positive experience. I was expecting a horrible white knuckle ride and it has been the exact opposite.
Just happy and grateful all round.
Wow…
I have a lot to be grateful for today but there is one thing in particular that seems to be shining the brightest.
I am so grateful for this community, I have never experienced anything like it. Real time miracles happening before my eyes on a daily basis. “The therapeutic value of one addict helping another is without parellel” and it shows. Knowing that someone else has literally felt what you are feeling body, mind and spirit… well nothing beats it as far as I am concerned.
Grateful to be healthy and sober again this morning
To be clear headed
To have a job to go to
For what i have in this life home…dog…car
For a quiet weekend.
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to stay clean and sober. I’m grateful that my parents are coming to visit today. I’m grateful that I feel pretty good despite waking up after four and a half hour sleep, we’ll see how I feel later. I’m grateful for TS and particularly this thread. I’m grateful to wake up to messages on here from friends I have made through them and myself being a consistent presence here for over a year. I’m grateful that @Singtone has been joining us and sharing how he is enjoying the benefits of gratitude. I’m grateful to watch as @Dazercat balances pets and a wife, recovering adult children all while working his own recovery, supporting us and dealing with his health, you are inspiration my brother, God bless you. I’m grateful to read about my fellow Canadians on the regular @M-be-free49 what a lovely photo of your patio the other day and @Its_me_Stella talking about lovely shares at meetings and how she has been blessed getting the opportunity to redevelop relationships with her parents. I’m grateful for moments like I had when I saw the Olympics were about to have a cycling event and I immediately thought of @anon74766472 and @Mno which is very cool. I’m grateful for the pictures mno posts including his inspirational nephew thats so cool and I hope his rowing team does great. I’m grateful for the work I have been doing with my sponsees as they challenge me, sometimes more than I would like, but God doesn’t give us more than we can handle, right? I’m grateful that I have a busy week ahead of me and that it may push me out of my comfort zone but I also know that these are the opportunities I have worked and prayed for. I’m grateful for music, excersise and laughter. Have a great day everyone. God bless you all. &
p.s. Always remember that you matter and your good enough. Ya you!!
I am grateful for getting out of bed and being able to drive to my friends place and hang out for the day. I’m grateful for her friendship, being able to help her and having a laugh together.

Today I’m grateful to come here because I need to focus on gratitude instead of other feelings like self-pitty or wooly thoughts.
I’m grateful for delivery service which brought me nice lunch. I’m grateful for my cats, lovely, cuddling, snorring heartwarmers. I’m grateful I can stay inside. I’m grateful for fresh bedding. I’m grateful for a cool shower. I’m absolutely grateful for the silent-mode on my mobile phone. I’m grateful that I know days with feelings like today pass. Tomorrow I will feel better. I’m grateful that I know it’s ok feeling low, it will pass. Grateful, I allow myself not beeing very “productive” today, instead try to refocus and treat myself good. Grateful, I can come back here later

Good morning all,
I’m grateful that I have parents who are always willing to help me out. I’m grateful for the long conversation with my Dad yesterday morning about all manner of things, and that my Mom joined in when she woke up. I’m grateful for my kids and hopeful that I will be able to give the same to them. I’m grateful for my husband, we have been communicating more, and that is wonderful. I’m grateful that sobriety let me hear and accept his views during and argument a while ago, and I’m trying to make him feel more heard. I don’t think I would have been able to do this if I were still drinking. Nothing was my fault then, just problems with everyone and everything else haha!
I’m grateful for this thread- I come to it often on hard days, or down days, and I can always count on you guys to lift me back up.
Everyone have a wonderful day
& 
. Grateful for my home, dog, and job 
. For this group that helps me focus and stay sober.
