I am really learning not to take some things for granted in my life. I have a good life that fits me well and I need to appreciate all of it a little more. I have seen a lot of people lose so much simply because they didn’t appreciate it or work to keep it. I may be posting in this thread more in the future just to keep myself on track with appreciating the little things.

I grateful for the little extra blessings sobriety has given me. Like this morning’s flexiblity to alter my routine. (As long as I got my coffee in.) Wifey got up wanted to walk the dogs before it got too hot. I’m good with that. Anything for the old dog. I was in the middle of my devotionals and it didn’t bother me at all to just finish my coffee and the devotional I was reading and know I can come back to it later this morning. It may not sound like much but this is actually a big deal for me.
And here I am after the dog walk. I like my routine and don’t mess with it I don’t mind changing my routine as long as I have some notice. So I’m back and had a nice dog walk thinking about all I can be grateful for.

Grateful for one day at a time.
The Breethe App. I’m using it everyday and learning more and more about meditation. And I’m LOVING IT I’m not new to meditation but I had been doing the exact same thing year after year and I just feel enlightened all of a sudden that I’m branching out and there’s a whole world of beneficial meditation out there to learn.
Thank you Natalie. Appreciate that. I love your beginning and ends to your list. Especially the “hit my knees and pray” part. With 2 grown up children in recovery and one with a dual diagnosis (bi polar) I believe God has so much more than just a little hand in the miracle of recovery.
I know your profile says U.K. my favorite place in the world. I’m originally from Boston and when you start your gratitude list saying clean and “Soba” I cant help but think of my Boston accent and my New England roots. It’s comforting. And my Boston accent does come out once and awhile. I haven’t lived up there for 40 years.
Bless your heart me and my daughter are bi polar so I understand the struggle. I been working with a new sponsor and she suggests I got my knees in a way of surrender to my God! I’m a proper cockney London girl !!! Wishing you a beautiful day in sobriety x
Today I am grateful that even though I feel lonely, confused and borderline depressed, that I’m still sober and willing regardless. Grateful for food, grateful for shelter, grateful to be alive, grateful that I’m away from toxic people.
@DuncanNZ Today I am grateful that even though I feel lonely, confused and borderline depressed, that I’m still sober and willing regardless. I copied your words brother, I feel the same way today, but drinking is not a option! I’m grateful for God, taking away the urge, my health and strength! I’m also thankful for this journey of living sober, accepting things for what they are, Ego free! Thank God!
@That number 9 hit home hard as my parents will be 70 this year coming up, I want them to no im good and at peace with myself

Grateful for the chirp of my cat as she just jump up on my lap to purr and settle in.
Grateful for pet greetings first thing in the morning as I’m swinging my legs down to get out of bed.
Grateful for all my travels in life. Hiding out from Rona in No. Arizona for the past 5 months is really starting to get to me. But I been looking at pictures of all my travels and different homes and I think “I been around”. I don’t need to go anywhere today. I’m hopeful I will get to travel again.
