I’m grateful I saw this on IG today and it took me to a link I want to share on this thread. The end of this short interview with the author tied it in to gratitude in a way that I wasn’t expecting and I found beautiful and expansive for my own thinking about gratitude.
“I’m telling you! To be like, “I love it when you just touched me on the arm and said, ‘Are you OK?’” Or, “I love it when you drop off seeds for the garden.” The experience or the understanding of one’s need, also puts us into this other thing, which is realizing, Oh, I’m grateful. You know, I think a lot of imaginations of freedom do not hold gratitude. But the fact is that we are constantly in profound need, which makes gratitude a deep and fundamental aspect of our lives.”
Edit to say, now I need to get this book!

G’morning y’all 
I’m grateful for kindness. Those little acts granted to me have saved me many times. I’m grateful for those who make the time to show they care.
I’m grateful for the snow! Lots and lots of beautiful snowflakes falling this morning. I’m grateful I made the choice to move here almost 15 years ago. Having snow in the winter helps me with the blues… the sheer beauty and serenity of it is so calming. I’m grateful I’m here.
I’m grateful for the virtual hugs and love I received yesterday. I genuinely felt it all, and today my emotions have taken a turn for the better. I feel much lighter and brighter today.
I’m grateful for books and music. I’m grateful for the soul friends I’ve found here. I’m grateful for compassion and sweetness. I’m happy to be alive today.

I’m grateful for something……….
I’m grateful for Stella. 
I wish I could help with your sadness and give you peace during a really difficult time. You do so much for us here. Take care of you today. And tomorrow. God Bless you
I’m grateful for Moxie I see you beat me here this morning. I got something to share with you too if I can figure it out.
I’m grateful my day has been totally changed up again because of Alice. I think she has another UTI. 
The storm is brewing. I’m grateful I got through to the vet but their fucking system is down. So we’ll be on hold until they call us back sometime. I’m grateful I’m retired and can just plan or wait my day around what to do with Alice. And I’m so grateful I can be calm and clear headed about the whole situation. I’m grateful I’m not panicking. I’m grateful we still have antibiotics leftover from 2 weeks ago from the last UTI.
I’m grateful I canceled my chiropractor for tomorrow I don’t want to deal with going down there in the winter storm that’s brewing. Actually I just don’t want to think about should I go or not. I’m grateful they understood and rescheduled me for next Wednesday.
I’m grateful to be inside and warm and finally getting to my morning routine or ritual with devotionals, prayers, you guys 
etc……
I’m grateful I “battened down the hatches” on our deck yesterday for the storm that’s coming in.
I’m grateful we have plenty of food in the house.
Heat. Electricity. So far. Plumbing. Gas fireplace. All the everyday things we take for granted. I’m grateful I’m on the priority list for snow removal.
I’m grateful for Chewys deliveries. And all my other deliveries. I’m grateful I found our cat food at Target, that I can’t seem to find anywhere. It’s not even a special cat food. And grateful I can add them to my list of deliveries that I’m grateful for.
I’m grateful I’m sober and I still have bacon in the house from Saturday morning. 
. Seriously, if I wasn’t sober there would be no such thing as leftover bacon. I find it a miracle that I have to plan to eat it before it gets too old sitting in the fridge.
I’m grateful it’s so much easier to watch my weight when I’m sober instead of the old out of control eating when I drank all day. Because more food would always sober me up for more drinking. Gosh I’m grateful I don’t miss that life.
I’m grateful for you all.
I’m grateful for where I am in my life with my sobriety.
Not drinking makes me a lot happier.

I’m grateful:
For managing to do my cleaning today, again , without cocaine. (The estate agents hired a professional photographer this time, she came this afternoon).
For the mini laugh I just did at the first sentence rhyming.
For laughter.
For a clean home. It feels so nice like this.
For the two iced coffees I had to help me do the cleaning.
For remembering to turn the boiler on earlier, so that I will have hot water for my shower before the CA meeting tonight.
For actually wanting to shower and go to the meeting.
For not feeling anxious, but excited to go.
For having time to do this list before it’s time to get ready. Which means I should be able to do my check-in, before I fall asleep, after getting home later tonight.
For my two cats, they are so sweet and I’m so lucky.
For the TS forum, I’d be completely lost without it. For every member showing up for themselves and each other.
Thank you.

I am grateful for second chances and the clarity of mind to notice when I am being offered one.
I am grateful for compassion and selflessness even though at times over this last week I had to remind myself " this is not about you… "
I am grateful that Annie still had a voracious appetite and gobbled up her whipped cream and Hersey chocolate pie.
I am grateful that she couldn’t eat the liver treats fast enough, she was so excited and that she thought today was the best day ever.
I am grateful for at home euthanasia and that Annie passed in her sleep without a care in the world, exactly how I hope to go.
I am grateful that after a week from hell going back and forth in my mind I feel at peace today with my decision.
I am grateful for all the love and support.
Thank you.

Good evening all,
I’m grateful that I can access the forum again- I couldn’t since yesterday and I really missed it. I’m grateful that my husband got the job he was hoping for, and it will bring some changes ( hopefully good🤞). I’m grateful that we have this place and each other to turn to when we need it. @Its_me_Stella , I am sorry you are hurting, and I hope you feel some peace with the choice, I’m glad she got to go peacefully in her sleep.
Everyone have a wonderful evening

I’m grateful to God thank you for guiding me through today and please help me rest well. I’m grateful for recovery, including mine. I’m grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful I stopped myself earlier today from loading funds onto my credit card that I got in December just so I could play poker on a gambling site, day one no gambling complete. I’m grateful for music and creativity. I’m grateful for online twelve step meetings and could use some recommendations for ones that take place at this time, 10:30 or 11 p.m eastern standard time daily, my work schedule makes me unavailable for all the usual meetings I was attending in the evenings. I’m grateful for humor and laughter. I’m grateful for daily readings, prayer and meditation.
God bless you all.

p.s. You are amazing. Ya you!!

Today I look out the window from bed and I’m grateful for a beautiful dawn. Cloudy, grey and beautiful. Grateful for my cats snuggeling in bed and looking out of the window, I love to watch them. Grateful I live more or less like a chicken atm: up at dawn, tired and heading to couch and bed when it’s dark 
Grateful for another day ahead of me where I can do what I love. And some chores 
Greateful I feel kind of goofy this morning. I like making fun of myself and the cats.
Grateful for my cozy home, for heating, for tea, a warm shower and all the facilitation modern household equipment brings. I would still marry my dishwasher, I’m so grateful for dishwashers
I’m grateful my husband called and his seminar week is good so far. The last one had lecturers talking blabla which is annoying when you attend a master education. Our time is too precious to waste it on blabla!
Grateful the catfood arrived and there’s a variety in catfood in the house again. Grateful to enjoy life sober!

Morning,
Today I’m grateful for early nights and early mornings. I love getting in bed at the end of the day, I look forward to it. I usually catch up on here, join a meeting or read my book. This Naked Mind arrived on Mon so I started that last night. Early mornings include lots of tea and more TS, waking up slowly, I hate running around in a mad flap in a morning.
I’m grateful that I made a decision yesterday to rearrange a weekend trip to see a friend. I’ve been thinking about it for a couple of weeks and really wanted to postpone but didn’t want to upset her. It’s too early for me, the whole weekend would be geared around drinking and even tho I’d go with the very best intentions, I don’t think I’m strong enough to manage it. So, I have told her we’ll rearrange. Tbh, I’m going to suggest a day long walk and then we can both return home after. I felt so much better after I told her, I felt like a big weight had been lifted. I’m grateful I put myself first.
Have a great day x
