Today I am grateful that I attended an aa meeting. I’m grateful for those that were there with me. I’m grateful that even though I’ve seen a few relapses in my fellowship lately I haven’t relapsed and that I’ve distanced myself from those people because I am powerless over alcohol, and alcoholics and I can carry the message but not the alcoholic. I glad I can recognise that. Someone who I know that is relapsing expressed to me that they cannot stop, I’m grateful that’s not me anymore and I’m grateful that I can hand that over and not try and fix someone else’s problems. I’m grateful that I’m willing to address my sleep deprivation due to late nights. I’ve been going to the gym after aa meetings and not getting home till 11pm-1:30am. It’s really messing with my life, not only with my recovery from working out but every aspect really. I’m grateful I’m willing to try and do something about that even though I’m not completely sure what. I’m grateful for my family, my life, that I’m not in a state of being completely terrified, hurt, paranoid, in pain, in danger or peril. Very grateful today.

Grateful for the peace of mind and serenity being sober gives me. Grateful to not have the turmoil of my drinking days and the terrible hangovers, the cold sweats, the shakes and the jitters.

Grateful for y’all :heart:
