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 my recovery. I’m grateful that I bought a space heater last night for my bedroom and slept great. The rest of the house is cold still. 57ºF or 13.5ºC. I’m grateful that I can afford to buy these things when needed and they don’t come with a hangover or the overwhelming desire to get more. I’m grateful for my family, friends TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that I have a free day today. I’m grateful for music.
God bless you all. 
& 
p.s. Never forget how awesome you are. Ya you!!

I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
And yes I’m grateful every morning I get to have Daisy on my lap. Or Benson.
I’m grateful for my coffee.
I’m grateful for my clean windows again and my clean floors. Just for today 
I’m grateful it looks like rain but it’s not. I got sun shining in behind me at the front of the house and I’m looking at dark gray scary rain clouds out the back.
I’m grateful to be able to still treasure the memories of my youth.
I’m grateful for a good nights sleep.
I’m grateful for my faith in Jesus, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday. Even though I’m not going to church. Or celebrating. I’m grateful I’m strong enough in my Faith and God knows that. God knows I’ve been questioning religion and Christianity and the way some Christians act. And that’s ok. God knows what’s in my heart. I’m grateful for all my blessings and the miracles, especially the miracles of recovery that God has done for me and my family and my friends.
Grateful for y’all.
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31
BTW 
my favorite Bible verse that has got me through a lot of shit.

Today I am grateful for poets and their words, and for this poem by David Whyte. At the risk of thread derailment, I’m going to share it here. All of it speaks to me, but especially the bolded words.
SWEET DARKNESS
When your eyes are tired
the world is tired also.
When your vision has gone
no part of the world can find you.
It’s time to go into the night
where the dark has eyes
to recognize its own.
It’s time to go into the dark
where the night has eyes
to recognize its own.
There you
can be sure
you are not beyond love.
The dark will make a home for you tonight.
The night
will give you a horizon
further than you can see.
You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.
Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.
Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.
I’m grateful to be sober, to be alive, to feel more and more at home in the world to which I belong. I am grateful for all of you.
I’m grateful for another day.

Good evening all,
Today I am grateful to be done with work for the weekend! I’m grateful for humor- sometimes you just gotta laugh it off. I’m grateful for movies with the family and homemade pizza. I’m grateful I will go to bed soon and get to sleep in tomorrow. Everyone have a wonderful evening

We can’t be grateful and angry at the same time. We can’t be anxious and grateful at the same time.
Someone I know posted this on social media and it really struck me as powerful.

Today I’m grateful:
- for the nicest weather and spending time with my little family out on the deck. Grateful for this sunny sober day with no big agenda.
- for videos from a couple few years ago of Chucho and Lupe playing. I miss him so hard! I’m so grateful he was in our life.
- for Miss Lupe, her resiliency and the lessons she teaches me about living in the now. She’s filling in some of the space Chucho left behind and taking up his mantle, like begging for treats from the neighbor and laying on top of the grassy hill in our yard.
- for all the wonderful milestones on here lately (@Dazercat I’m looking at you!) and the positivity and energy that comes with seeing people succeeding in their goals.
- for another sober day.
And for all my TS amigos!

Today I am grateful…
…that I can have a gentle day today - up too late last night having fun with an assignment!
…for the good long phone conversation with Mom last night, that we can still connect this way - and that I can just let the conversation drift wherever she takes us and join her in her world. Oh, and that I’m sober and don’t miss out on any of it, thinking about pouring another glass instead of listening…
…for small things to look forward to: the flowers I’ll pick up today just because, listening to my favourite radio shows this weekend, taking a nap after a good long walk with the dog girl… (oh, and I’m grateful I don’t have to cook Easter dinner for a crowd. I don’t miss that yet!)
…that life is so much easier sober. This time last year was so hard - not just the pandemic, but other stuff too. Not a whole lot of it has changed, to be honest, except me - and yet this year feels so different, so much better. Sober life = best life.
…for another day.
