Good evening all,
I’m grateful for a nice weekend with the family. I’m grateful for a new book I’m reading about rest- all the different kids, etc. I’m grateful that there are job options for my husband. I’m grateful for Ben & Jerry’s Netflix & Chill’s ice cream. I’m grateful bad moods don’t last forever.
Everyone have a wonderful evening

Hi All, Grateful the registration of dirt bike went easy today, my negativity was thinking a several month wait. The Tao does care
Hope my brother will enjoy a ride together.
Grateful for not craving and staying sober
For our fellowship 🧘‍♂:heart:

Morning,
I’m grateful to be able to take part in a charity walk in a couple of months. My dad is well advanced with Alzheimer’s and some of my family are doing the walk organised by them. My daughters and I have been on training walks, building up our fitness levels. I’m grateful for these times together.
I got home from work yesterday at 5pm and we went straight out to walk, a brisk walk. As we’re almost finished I was thinking about the charity walk and they give you a glass of fizz when you cross the finish line… It made me realise that I hadn’t thought about drinking once yesterday, not once.
I’m grateful for this, it’s not a part of my life.

I’m grateful to be sober. I’m even more grateful to feel content sober.

I’m grateful for my funks. I may not feel it as I’m going through them. When I get through them and process all my thoughts, feelings and emotions behind them I become stronger. I let go of things.

Im grateful for the freedom of bondage of self.

Clarity of mind from not having it soaked in alcohol most of the time. My thinking kept me prisoner. My prison was under construction before I started drinking. Its foundation was built upon a toxic family. I kept building from there.

Clarity of mind helps me tear that prison down. Clarity of mind keeps me from building new cells.
I’m grateful for clarity of mind.

I’m grateful for my new lease on life that recovery has given me.

I’m lucky and I recognize that today. I’m grateful.

I’m grateful to read all of your shares. This thread always feeds my gratitude.

You cannot overdose on gratitude!

@Callie99 Congrats! Killin it! Keep smashing down those prison walls!

[Lousul]

Grateful for good coffee (@anon42928441 I’ll be getting back on the coffee thread )

I’m grateful for productive days. There’s alot to do at work right now but instead of feeling overwhelmed, I feel accomplished for working through it.

Grateful for all the friends I have made over the last few months. I’m surrounded by good people.

And I’m grateful for everyone on here. I’m grateful for @Dazercat and all the support he offers everyone. Eric, you have alot of stressors in life right now and you’re working through it (sober!) even though it’s hard. I hope you know that it’s inspiring and helpful to read about👍 keep being awesome

[anon42928441]

Yes ma’am

[Dazercat]

I’m grateful the gratitude thread was right on top this morning. I feel it’s like a little lottery win.

I’m grateful my daily reading of the NA Spiritual guide was gone what’s up with that Twinnie? I’m grateful because I spent the time doing a 7 minute guided meditation with Richard Burr instead. I’m grateful I’m Capable Of An Immediate Shift.

I’m grateful I don’t drink.
I’m grateful Alice just got on my lap and is tamping and purring. I’m grateful we did her second subcutaneous fluid thingy yesterday. And Kelly is feeling more confident each time. And neither one of us got pricked this time.

I’m grateful I was very assertive with the vet tech on the phone yesterday. Although I was nervous but calm. And she got the director who apologized for not calling me back 2 days in a row with Minnie’s lab results. I’m grateful we are going to try hypertension meds on Minnie. Although I don’t know why one of my pets would have high blood pressure. They’re treated like royalty around here.

I’m grateful I told my wife how I felt late yesterday. Sad. Lonely. Depressed. And how I’m so much happier or enjoy my time by myself and I’m thinking about going to Al-Anon meetings because I need help . Fuck I’m grateful I actually feel like shit about the whole thing. I’m grateful I’m just going to feel it. Until the next feeling comes around.

I’m grateful for my readings again today. God nailed it again I don’t know how He does it. I guess He loves me. The section on the book was about the fear of intimacy, fucken ay! If that ain’t me
Most people want and need love. Most people want and need to be close to people. But fear is an equally strong force,*and it competes with our need for love. More specifically, this force is fear of intimacy. and then there was a picture of me because it does feel safer to be alone. And I won’t be rejected. I’d be grateful if the book told me what the fuck to do now! I guess I’ll pray and be aware and turn it over to God and see what happens.

I’m grateful this shit is so exhausting. I’m grateful Minnie went for a Whizzy at 9:30 pm last night and that’s when I went to bed. I’m grateful I slept great too. I’m grateful I got an old dog that will dictate what time I go to bed.

I’m grateful to share my shit here with you all. And I’m extremely grateful you all share your shit here with me.

Unless I love my martyrdom and cling to it, I need not be alone in freeing myself from whatever troubles me.
One Day At A Time In Al-Anon. And there was another little picture of me

[anon74766472]

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I got an immediate answer from the company today. And probably I’ll get a f2f meeting soon. I have mixed feelings, though. I am grateful I don’t drink to numb them.

I am grateful I had a productive day at work.

I am grateful we will finally get some rain. It’s sad to say that in march already.
I am grateful for nice co-workers.

Clean Time: 21 Days

I am grateful for…

•Another day clean/sober.
•The opportunity to go to work and make the money I need to support my daughter and myself.
•That I have a safe place to rest my head at night.
•That my daughter will be coming home tonight for my half of the week.
•That I have the day off tomorrow to spend with my daughter.
•That I have access to recovery based treatement/support as well as access to mental health care.
•That I live on a beautiful tourist island year round. I feel like I should appreciate that more actually. People vacation here - I get to live here.

[Dazercat]

I’m grateful for your shout out Pica.
And I’m grateful and admire your strength and courage to fight for your sobriety at a younger age. God Bless. I can’t stop thinking about your story about how you finally got into your first meeting. Driving by. Sitting in the parking lot. Etc…… you’re an awesome example for all of us.
That won’t be my style. But if I do go? I’ll be busting down the door to get in!! And y’all will hear about it.
I’m glad your here.
And it’s not just for your goofy lovable pets pics.

[Pica]

You should totally go. I’m waiting for the day I get to read your update.

And thanks, grateful for you friend! 🐈‍⬛:dog2:

[Its_me_Stella]

Good morning.
I am grateful for my Higherpower and their will for me.

I am grateful to be reminded,sometimes multiple times a day, to let go.

I am grateful that letting go today is easier because I have been practicing it now for over 2 years.

I am grateful for the four members who took clean time last night. 30 days, 9 months, 20 years and 23 years!!! All four are miracles.

I am grateful that our meeting attendance has tripled in the year I have been coming to meetings in this area. It proves to me that life out there is not getting any better.

I am grateful that I was asked again to sponsor another amazing woman last night…these blessings just keep coming, I am so grateful.

I am grateful to have the energy and time to say yes to sponsoring these women. To be building a strong team so that we can walk together as we learn to live this new way of life.

I am grateful for the visual I have of that, it’s beautiful. Hand in hand with a cocoon of white light around us slaying life on life’s terms together.

I am grateful that I feel whole, that all my pieces feel connected today.

I am grateful for faith, trust and hope.

I am grateful for you.

[ShesGotMoxie]

Yay you!!! Congrats on your 6 months. I’m so proud of you.

[PinkyP]

Morning,
Today I’m grateful for not drinking yesterday or wanting to.
I’m grateful to be here on this journey at last after so many years. What a waste.
I’m grateful to feel so good, physically and mentally. I’m so pleased that I’m making good choices, the benefits are endless.
I’m grateful to everyone here, on their own journeys, who inspire and support me every day. Thank you
Have a great day

[Sunflower1]

Good evening all,
I’m grateful for a beautiful sunset as we walked to check the mail. I’m grateful for help from a dental assistant I have never worked with before- she was very helpful and good at her job, and it made a not great day better. I’m grateful for my family and our home. I’m grateful for all the support for each other I see on here, it always lifts me up.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
P.S. I hope the f2f goes good @anon74766472 !

[Sunflower1]

@I.cant.We.can - I hope work is easing up some with new people to help out! Thought of you today- we are short staffed and people keep calling out. Hard to stay positive but I’m trying!

[I.cant.We.can]

Yes I was just sharing with another friend how much nicer it is at work with enough help. Thanks very much. I am glad your assistant made your day better. Mine did today as well, instead of working with the manager that complains a lot I got to laugh with a young fellow that I have been training.
