I’m grateful for today. It feels like the beginning of a new chapter to my story.

I’m grateful for the fellowship. Both cyber and in person.

I’m grateful to feel humble without humiliation.

I’m grateful for willingness. I’m still willing to do whatever it takes to stay sober. To find peace of mind.

I’m grateful that solution is always there when I become willing, or sometimes desperate enough to seek it.

I’m grateful to realize I’m still a work in progress. To reflect on how far I’ve come and how much further I need to go.

I’m grateful for my new sponsor. There is something different about him. I feel like I can trust him. Trust is hard for me. I’m not scared.

I’m grateful to give that title to someone else besides me.

I’m grateful to be working the steps again.

I’m grateful for my dental appointment today. FINALLY! it’s here. I know it not going to be fun. It’s going to be worth it. I’m not scared. Maybe a little…

I’m grateful to be able to face fear.

I’m grateful anxiety isnt bothering me today.

I’m grateful for a good night’s sleep.

I’m grateful for the army of support I have access to.

I’m grateful to be here and that your all here.

I’m grateful I don’t have to do this by myself.

Have an awesome day!

Hi guys. I don’t usually read this thread but I’m grateful to be inspired to today. It is very instructive!

So something clicked in me regarding gratitude yesterday. It can change not just your thoughts but your actions! What happened was I tackled a huge pile of clean but unfolded laundry that had been weighing down my spirit for weeks.

When I was done it struck me…hey I should be grateful for my laundry and treat the task with the respect it deserves! People in nursing homes get their laundry washed with everyone elses and sometimes have only a few pieces of adaptive clothing to choose from, if they’re even capable of choice anymore. Etc etc.

Revelation: I should be damn grateful for my capacity to choose, my closet full of clothes, and not having to be dressed by someone in the morning. I am going to think about that the next basket of clothing I ‘get to’ fold.

I’m grateful to be sober for 124 days. I broke my sobriety last year at 119 days so I was a little ambivalent about this coming but it’s all good. I was still trying to figure out how to drink like a “normal” person last year when I started again, and I wasn’t calling myself sober either. The power of words and labels is amazing sometimes.

I’m grateful for my little dog and how happy he is.

I’m grateful for my amazing husband on this day that is his birthday. I’m grateful that we are not going to be drunk today (cause we usually are).

I’m grateful for my Plant Shop and how well it’s doing. I’m grateful for the ridiculous amount of work I’m doing over all, although in the moment sometimes it’s seems excessive.

I’m grateful that for the first time in my life I’m a workaholic because I’m doing something I love. I’m definitely going to have to address this but for now it’s just fun.

I’m grateful that I haven’t been sick since Feb 2020 until two days ago. I am not grateful for all the snot.

I’m not here much and I would like to change that but I’m super grateful knowing this is always here for me when I need it. Also super grateful for all of you, I hope we all have a Day or two with very little struggle.

I am grateful to be sober and moving further away from that poison each day.

I am grateful that I managed to get almost 8hrs of sleep, which is a small miracle.

I am grateful for my animals and for all of the comfort they provide.

I am grateful for my family and to be here with all of you. :two_hearts:

Hi everyone :sunny::sunflower::yellow_heart:

I’m grateful to read Jason’s gratitude. I have trust issues as well, and I’m known to isolate literally for years. I’m desperately trying to recognize situations and people that cause me to want to be alone, so I can work on my response to those. I’m grateful sobriety has reminded me that life is too short to be hiding away from other people.

I’m grateful to feel more calm today. I once again took care of others and didn’t make enough time for myself, so the last couple days I’ve spent falling apart. I’m grateful I didn’t cancel my hair appointment, because I’m feeling better from just getting out of the house to do something for me.

I’m grateful my oldest son is doing well and has some sober folks where he works who are supportive of him. Working in a brewery, he’s gonna need that.

I’m grateful my youngest son is 6 weeks sober today. He’s doing really well and has a great support system.

I’m grateful for my sobriety and the will to keep doing the work to stay sober. There’s no way I could have handled these past 2 months if I was still drinking. I would’ve shut down and been of no use to anyone. I’m grateful for this community and how it’s been a catalyst for learning more about myself. Thank you. :heart:

I’m grateful I finally found my Chemex coffee maker and coffee grinder.
I’m grateful for Starbucks and that it opens at 5 am for me to drive through and get a coffee.
I’m grateful it’s only 5 minutes away.
I’m grateful I don’t have to go to Starbucks tomorrow morning.
I’m very grateful for the material things I have this week during this move. And that’s ok. I am grateful for my material things.
I’m grateful we don’t have internet yet. Or cable. I’m grateful how well we, the wife and I get along. Especially during stressful times like moves, deaths of family members, family addiction and mental illnesses and diseases. I’m grateful we continue to work like a fine tuned piano.
I’m grateful I can write out my gratitude anytime during the day. And I’m grateful I’ve been practicing gratitude mentally since I woke up this morning.
I’m grateful for my beautiful back yard view and swimming pool.
I’m grateful the mold remediation was actually pretty easy to fix in the Cali condo. They found mold where they thought it was. Remediated it and there were no surprises or surprised costs involved.
I’m grateful my Cali agents have handled it without me.
I’m grateful the carpet cleaners were here early and when they were done we found B and Mavy. I’m grateful I didn’t panic after looking EVERYWHERE and not being able to find them. I knew they were in the house and I was cool and calm. I’m grateful Mavy puked up his lunch on the tile and not on the carpet.
I’m grateful to be relaxing poolside in the shade it’s not so hot. I’m grateful I’m taking the rest of the day off and the pain in my back is manageable. I’m grateful to keep my streak of 852 days of gratitude lists going strong. Like this sober fucking guy.
I’m grateful to see the funny looking Gamble Quail drink from my pool.
I’m pretty fucking grateful to be this sober and blessed.
I’m grateful and thanks y’all for always being here.

Good evening all,
I’m grateful for all of the good I see on here- @JasonFisher hope the dental appointment went good, @Dazercat your backyard pool sounds sounds amazing! @ShesGotMoxie you amaze me with your strength and wisdom, @Cjp and @PlantLady19 im glad you guys are here, @I.cant.We.can I’m sorry to hear you have Covid, I hope that it is mild and you have a quick recovery.

If I missed anyone, I’m grateful you are here! I’m grateful to have TS- just reading the gratitude here has uplifted me.
Everyone have a wonderful evening :heart:

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I went to the meeting yesterday.
I am grateful I have people who understand my situation. Not all of them. I used to think a friend has to support you in each and every single situation. I am grateful I let go of this long time ago. When I have worries about my diabetes friends with diabetes can naturally understand me better.
I am grateful it’s raining. This is calming the ‘you should do this and this voice’.
I am grateful for purring cats in my bed.
I am grateful I am going to get my contract today or tomorrow.
I am grateful I have enough.

This morning I’m grateful for 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Greatful for my purring old boy on me signaling I should get up and make breakfast for the cats. Greatful for the hot shower I had, it seems like every muscle in my body aches after the heavy work yesterday. Greatful I did all the work, it starts raining again I think. Greatful I can spend the day in house, office work waits to be done. Greatful for office at home. I love my library with the big desk, the many books and the computer. Greatful for my cosy home.
