Good evening all,
I’m grateful for a beautiful day weather wise. I’m grateful that my job lays me go outside every half hour or so- it makes me feel like I get to enjoy the day. I’m grateful that my son asked me to work out with him today. It was pretty cool to cheer each other on. I’m so so grateful for my kids. I’m grateful that I can help them learn and use better coping mechanisms for what life will bring them, and I’m grateful I no longer feel like a hypocrite when I talk to them about these things.
Everyone have a wonderful evening

Morning,
Today I’m grateful for turning down an invitation to a birthday bbq this weekend, I felt bad initially but then realised that I need to put myself first.
I’m grateful that my first thoughts of the day aren’t related to drinking, wondering if I have enough or if I should not have a drink today. They used to last all day.
I’m grateful that I didn’t drink yesterday or want to.
I’m proud of myself 
Have a great day x

Good morning all,
I’m grateful to have a little time to be grateful in my rocking chair before heading to work. I’m grateful for my coffee this morning. I’m grateful I am not worn out by work this week. I’m grateful I get to see the sunrise most mornings. I’m grateful I feel level emotionally right now- I’ll take it when I can cuz I know I wont always! Im grateful to have wonderful examples of how to handle life from the people on TS. I’m grateful that I let myself care about people on here, and not shut it out because I “might get hurt”.
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 a hangover free clear head.
I’m grateful for my Pilates workout yesterday. Boy I needed it.
I’m grateful after my workout I was able to come home and fix a couple of computer technical things that my wife was struggling with. I’m grateful I’m just tech savvy enough to get by. I’m grateful when that tech works.
I’m grateful for the purring orange cat on my lap.
I’m grateful my niece/daughter is not giving up on
Orange Catsidy. I got the name wrong yesterday. He seems to be living on top of her bathroom cabinets and is receiving room service up there for his meals until he gets comfortable and his wounds heal.
I’m grateful for all the places I’ve lived and left behind and waking up in the springtime in Durango Colorado was my favorite. I’m grateful for all my memories that I still have of all those places. I’m grateful I’m a photo junkie and I have lots of pics that I can enjoy of all the places I’ve lived and traveled to and people I’ve loved and miss. I’m grateful for all the old fun pics of Minnie I was looking at yesterday. She was so squirrelly when she was young. I’m grateful she continues to become more gorgeous every day.
I’m grateful the Celtics won last night. Sorry about your boys Brian. I haven’t watched any, but I’m trying to follow it on the news.
I’m grateful I was up much before 6 to let Minnie out and stayed up to make coffee and feed everyone. I’m grateful to see the effects of the sun rising behind me and casting its light through the tall ponderosa pines.
I’m grateful for leftovers last night and not having to cook or drive out to dinner.
I’m grateful for my daily gratitude practice and yours. Ya yours 
everyday. It keeps me sober.
Finding Happiness, Gratitude in Sobriety
Gratitude is more than saying thank you. It’s a sense of wonder, appreciation and thankfulness for life. Make a commitment to practice gratitude.

Today I’m grateful for new experiences. Now I’m tired and that’s ok. Grateful I’m flexible to handle the “time flies” phenomenon. It was just 1 and now it’s 4 pm - where did my day vanish? Grateful I can get completely lost when working on something interesting. I lose sense of time, forget to eat, and don’t remember the daily checklist. So let’s call it a day. Grateful I can rest now with purring cats on the sofa. Still grateful for leftovers as I was pretty hungry and I’m not up for going out atm. Not even for food! Unusual, this is a major change in my behaviour since I moved. Grateful to notice changes.

I am grateful to be sober.
I am sorry I cannot concentrate on reading here. I am just scrolling by.
I am grateful it’s soon the weekend.
I am grateful I had the courage to talk with my boss today about things that go wrong in our team, communicationwise.
I am grateful I don’t swallow it for too long and pour wine over it.
I am grateful I could have the job. I am not feeling it. That’s okay. I am maybe shocked or entered anxiety immediately. My initial thought was doing some grocery shopping to treat myself. But I have all I need.
I am grateful I am writing here instead.

I’m grateful that @Dazercat team won, I really like that Jason Tatum, I haven’t been watching many games of any sport just quickly check in on the news or online, it is nice when I do get a chance to sit down and enjoy a game. I’m grateful I slept well and still have lots of time before work. I’m grateful I didn’t punch anyone in the face yesterday, haven’t said that one in a while but it is still true Lol I’m grateful I attended a random AA group last night and got to listen to a speaker share her inspiring story. I’m grateful for walks, after some time in a wheelchair and laid up froma bad back I hope to never forget how wondreful it is to walk, run, bike and more.

Hey y’all
I’m grateful I have some time for myself today. I’m grateful I’m well and capable of helping with my father-in-law’s care needs. He’s at chemo right now, so I’m cooking tonight’s meal. I’m just overall grateful for being able to sit next to his chair and reach over to hold his hand. I love him.
I’m grateful for friends who have a crap-ton going on in their lives, but they still make time to check in on me. You give me that extra oomph I need to get back up.
I’m grateful for music. My parents-in-law don’t listen to music, so I’m starving for it. I’m grateful I’ve never watched much TV and that I don’t have “my shows” I can’t miss. This is just for me, y’all. I have nothing against watching television, but to sit in front of it for hours or to have it blaring when no one’s even watching… well, it drives me a little bit crazy. I’m grateful for the mental break from it.
I’m grateful for so many things. Watching someone slowly dying will open your eyes to blessings and even the littlest of things we take for granted. I’m incredibly grateful for the relationships I have with my children. I’m grateful for the good, strong man my husband is. I’m grateful that my little tribe is so close-knit. I’m grateful we have all we need and then some to share.

Reading your post made me grateful in thinking that yes- communications w my mother is so much better and i can safely navigate and empathize with her just overall so much better these days and it creates more of a connection- I can be more helpful more present, and still for the most part know when it’s time to navigate away for a little bit.

Smiling at all this-your heart is full and its pure badassery:grin:. Love all of it and right?-I somehow got Severe Sepsis medically induced coma to stave off organs plural damage and following that had ro learn how to walk talk and literally think again- reading your post put me in that gratitude vibe for all i can participate in. Going to an activities committee tonight to set up a Hike/Meeting/hopefully water nearby thingie w as many people as possible. I get to run- feel the depths of inspiration hourly from you guys here n my home groups and my connection to my Source. Grateful I can feel new levels of Love and safety and laughter n happiness and a new relationship to fear and anger that is of course a work in progress. I can safely interact with those thoughts and feelings and I can safely be vulnerable enough yo say help this hurts. Im fighting for my spiritual, mental and physical aliveness today. Grateful I dont have to play around in insanity for anymore time than it takes to fire off a text, call someone, open this app and see all you guys fighting right along with me. Im grateful I get to be fucking authentic today and work to be a calm loving supportive individual rather than an explosive hot fucking mess. Im grateful I haven’t lost my freedom since 2009. Im grateful my heart lets me sleep-unless its so freakin happy it tickles when a new day starts lol. All Love to you guys and thank you for carrying on regardless of starting over or staying in it from day one. I admire everyone of you:pray:t2:

Thanks Miranda,
I think it’s so ingrained in us to want to please everyone and ‘do the right thing’ that we’re used to putting our needs second. It takes a mindshift to reverse this. I’m working on it

Morning,
I’m always grateful for eveyone here. I have a picture in my mind of the sun breaking through the ponderosa pines and pets, cats on cabinets, children, football games, horses and walks home after work. I enjoy reading and relating to life around the world.
I’m grateful I’m in a good place, I feel strong, confident and motivated.
I’m grateful to start work later today so will fit in a walk.
I’m grateful that I want to exercise and get a bit fitter, it feels good.
You’re right @Dazercat, this gratitude stuff really works!!
