I am grateful for hot peppermint tea
I am grateful that I allowed myself to rest the past few days, not continuing to leave my foot on the gas with an empty tank.
I’m grateful I’m learning to be kind to myself.
I’m grateful for @liv_m yoga thread and the time that goes into it.
I’m grateful that letting go has been a near constant focus for me and I don’t expect to be perfect right out of the gate. But I slowly chip away and make progress.
I’m grateful I feel more confident and at peace with myself then I have in my entire life. It’s not always an upward trajectory. But overtime Ive noticed big changes and growth. I am proud of myself.
I’m grateful that I allow myself to cry now when I’m sad or overwhelmed. That years of holding it in and pretending I was fine, hurt me more then I realized.
I’m grateful I just recently passed my 200 day sobriety mark. That it just seems like yesterday I came on here embarrassed to tell my family and friends I had stopped drinking asking for advice. That it has been the singularly most life altering choice I’ve made in my life so far. That the domino affect sobriety has had on my life, my mental health, my happiness, my self worth, and my health has been truly life altering. It makes me cry just thinking about it.
I’m grateful that this community and specifically many of you in the gratitude thread have been here for me at all hours, through awful days, and I am eternally grateful.
@ShesGotMoxie @Dazercat @Its_me_Stella @Alisa you all have been here for me for so much, you all warm my heart. Thank you for being my teachers and my friends. I’m grateful for you guys

I am grateful to watch Dora fixating her sister in order to attack her and all the time her ears are moving in all directions to listen what’s going on. 
I am grateful I don’t have to test myself if I can drink in moderation. I don’t want to.
I am grateful the days are longer.
I am grateful for this thread.

I’m grateful for my little home, its damp in places, cold often, only has one bathroom for 5 of us!, needs new joists, the list is long!
But I’m grateful it has an amazing garden, bats, so many different birds, we have Mr and Mrs Pheasant in our garden atm, a great view and best of all no neighbours.
I’m grateful to live here, I love coming home, I feel safe and happy here.

Good morning, I’ve been procrastinating on my gratitude list ever since I got back from vacation, and the disease of addiction doesn’t take a vacation.
-
Today I am grateful for getting up early, having slept the necessary hours and being sober, breathing calm, connection with my family, my friends, my recovery partners, with myself, with life, with GOD.
-
Today I am grateful for everything that is revealed daily, for this new way of loving myself and others, learning to be compassionate and humble.
-
Today I am grateful for the health of my parents and my siblings for working on my relationship with them, talking more with them even when I want to isolate myself.
-
Today I am grateful for what my higher power gives me Today, what I need and can handle, I am grateful to discover that the will of my higher power always favors me even if sometimes I don’t understand it or don’t want to let go of the reins.
-
Today I am grateful for this new stage of my recovery process in starting a sentimental relationship, learning to manage my emotions, always vigilant and grateful.
-
Today I am grateful to work on my seventh tradition, that I am not a leech and I can put a plate of food on my table and pay rent.
-
Today I am grateful for the blessings that come, for the addicts who receive the message, for the colleagues who strive to stay clean, and for the faith and hope of those who are yet to reach a group or a rehabilitation center .

Today I am grateful for taking action on my recovery, working and writing my steps, for taking the time to make this list and share it, for living honestly and asking myself the right questions in my moments of frustration.

I’m grateful I’m still here 
I’m grateful I’m sober.
I’m grateful for all the people that think I’ve helped them. Y’all have helped me so much to stay sober.
I’m grateful we can all be in this together.
I’m grateful for all the young people on this journey, almost envious. Yes envious of y’all. I don’t really have any regrets from my past. But I do wish I had the courage to have started my sober journey earlier. I’m grateful I also know I cannot change that. But you guys are the fucken Warriors!!! Go out there and change the world. Seriously, you guys rock!! I’m grateful my kids are clean and sober. As a parent I know their struggle and so dang proud of them. And because they are clean and sober, they are living a great life.
I’m grateful for all my Alice time.
I’m grateful Minnie’s meds shipped overnight. I hope we get them today so I can start her on them tomorrow morning. I’m grateful Minnie still loves her walks in the morning. The rest of the day is kind of a struggle watching her. But she loves her walks.
Oh here she comes 
I’m grateful she came over for a pet.
I’m grateful we have a signed contract on the condo. Now we wait 10-12 days for contingencies to go away. I’m grateful we’re near the end of our other contract and we should close Monday. No reason not too.
I’m grateful when all this is over I found out Phoenix has about 6-8 non stop flights to Dallas and LAX so if the pets are good, we can visit our children easily more often. I’m grateful I miss my grown up children and want to see them so badly. And Baby G! . I’m grateful there’s a great vet 11 minutes from the house and they do boarding too. They come highly recommended from 2 or 3 people I’ve met. And they’ll be able to give Alice and Minnie their meds when we travel. I’m grateful for all the work I’ve done planning this as calmly and sober, and hangover free, as ( I hate to say should) life should be. I guess “Life on Life’s Terms.” Not a slogan I use but a damn good one.
Grateful for y’all.
Life itself is a
privilege, But to
live life to the
fullest - Well, that
Is a choice

Good morning family 
I am grateful that my life is bursting at the seams with fullness.
I am grateful for the 34 years of NA that were celebrated last night as an oldtimer took his cake. I am grateful that the meeting format last night was changed so that he shared for the whole meeting. Listening to his experience, strength and hope was… well it brought me to tears and I could have listened to him forever.
I am grateful to call him my friend and to know that I can meet him for walks and that he will share his message with me whenever we spend time together.
I am grateful for the new man in my life who is so thoughtful and caring. Who makes me feel safe and cherished. I have never felt cherished before and it’s all I want to feel now.
I am grateful that a package I mailed to South Africa made it to my friend with all of its items inside! The mail crime is fierce there…
I am grateful that there is another cake tonight celebrating 5 years of clean time, taken by a young lady who is a new mumma. She is my Friday walking buddy and I just adore her.
I am grateful for my cousin and the fact that she went to rehab 16 years ago, then stayed clean by getting active in NA. She was the perfect role model for me and the right person for me to keep my focus on. All of those years I was suffering in my relapse, without knowing it, she kept my hope alive.

Irises are one of my favorites! Thank you for relocating the slugs. I have memories of hanging out with my farmer grandpa and he would squish bugs and it caused me distress, even as young as I was. They all have a place.
