I’m grateful for random acts of kindness.
Specifically the Jack Black video my wife showed me of him serenading a boy in a wheelchair from the boys favorite song from School Of Rock.
I’m grateful sometimes Twitter can be nice and up-lifting. I’m grateful like anything else it depends where you want to go and what you want to see.
I’m grateful we got a bunch of our early morning chores done and it’s just 9 and I get to do my gratitude. I’m grateful I went to my AlAnon meeting last night even though I was a bit apprehensive. I haven’t been to this meeting in about 3 months. I’m grateful with our schedule this week I’m not going to my AlAnon meeting tonight to shop for my kids with my wife. I’m grateful she wanted to make sure I was ok with that. I’m grateful she lets me put my meetings first.
I’m grateful for my wife.
I’m grateful for cool desert weather.
I’m grateful for the clear dark starry sky this morning.
I’m grateful I’m learning to take care of myself.
I’m grateful for lazy weekends.
I’m grateful things are good. Today. Yesterday. Right now.
I’m grateful I don’t drink.
I’m grateful for G-Dudes
If all you did was just look for things to appreciate you would live a joyous, spectacular life.

Thank you @Bootz and @Alisa for your kind words
Today I’m grateful for a calm mind. I slept short and bääähhh, woke up early, had my thoughts spinning around going to my mum’s house because the chinmey sweeper was sheduled for today morning. As I arrived I was calm and felt grateful for all the years my mum was there to care. Now it’s my turn. Grateful I walked through the garden and enjoyed the warm autumn sun and the beautiful colours. It was so quiet and peaceful.
Grateful for the company of a friend when I fetched my mum’s belongings from the rest home. She helped me so much during the last months
Grateful my old boy is kind of a nagging grumpy cat today and the young boy is rollicking. They played tag
Grateful for yummi lunch. Grateful a friend called me in the afternoon.
Grateful I rested with cats on the couch. Grateful I’m sober
I am grateful that just like they say “hurt people hurt " I am convinced that " healing helps heal”. There are times that I think I am doing things for myself and maybe I am in that moment, but we are all put onto this earth with a purpose.
I am grateful that the more I heal, the bigger the ripple I create.
I am grateful to be going back to present at the Corrections Center on Wednesday night and into a high school on Thursday.
I am grateful for finding open-mindedness and for all that I am learning.
I am grateful that today I have so much faith, I just don’t feel scared anymore.
I am grateful for Tonglen meditations.
I am grateful for curiosity, and innocence, for vulnerability and raw, painful truths.
I am grateful that I am made up of many pieces and that I may choose which one of me leads my days today. It’s not always easy and somedays I get lead astray but everyday I try my best and that’s all I can do for that day.
I am grateful that I can forgive myself today, that I genuinely love myself. I can see that even though I love myself it doesn’t make everything " ok". Love doesn’t conquer everything as we are all aware. Love doesn’t make all of our demons fall away. What self love does though is it allows me to hold myself softly when nobody else will.
I am grateful for humility and identity. We are one.
Oh boy it looks like I missed a lot. I am grateful to be feeling better, grateful for a few stretches that are helping my back feel better and back to work tomorrow. I am grateful I just realized I have 7 months clean and sober today!! How did I almost miss that!?! Grateful that time is literally flying by. Gratful I’m doing my best to savor and enjoy the little enjoyable moments I can in each day.
I’m trailing behind you on my milestones by a couple of weeks and love to see you achieve those! Makes me happy for you and anticipate what I can do as well
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I did another step, set up a zoom meeting and instructed sun salutations to a complete stranger. It was easier than expected. We had a nice chat also.
I am grateful to have the day off today.
I am grateful I have enough.
Edit: I am grateful that my only actual worry is how many thin long sleeves I need to put on for my ride today.
Morning,
I’m grateful to have just enjoyed a morning dog walk, so peaceful, the best way to wake up.
I’m grateful for the evening walk yesterday, the bats were flying half a meter above my head, the brook was babbling, birds were saying goodnight to each other. In the past I’d have taken a large plastic cup of wine with me and missed all the nature.
I’m grateful to have a great relationship, we’ve just said how lucky we are
Good morning all! Grateful to be back to my routine, even back to the grind! Grateful for my routine, grateful that I get picked up at my house now and don’t have to make the 4 block trek at 3 in the morning. Little things are huge! So grateful I feel well enough for work, grateful the dent in my paycheck has been minimized. Grateful for my job and the physical strength and resilience of healing! Grateful I made it to my IOP last night, gratful for the mental health and schedule tweaking I’ve been able to do to make this possible. I’m grateful I will get to graduate IOP, grateful I feel like I’m finally getting back to 100% capacity and back on track. Still so very grateful I didn’t get derailed, grateful I was able to hold onto my clean date during that debacle that is getting to be a month in my review mirror.
Grateful to be waking up grateful and that all the unsureness, unsteadiness, and just plain fright seems to be behind me. I’m grateful I still remember the morning where the TS mantra said “you can let it destroy you, you can let it define you, OR, you can let it strengthen you.”
Grateful to be back to the sweet spot in life where I feel like I’m resonating with life. What a gift.
Grateful when I come home from work today I have no obligations, I can go to bed at 5 in the evening if I so wish! Grateful that I know I probably will! Grateful for sleep!
Grateful to be hitting this day knowing what I must do to make sure I return to this pillow tonight, clean and sober.
I’m grateful for this morning and some time to myself. I’m grateful for the sleep I got and the energy I have now. I’m grateful for continuing to find balance and healthy habits that support my values and goals.

Im grateful to be sober and present in my life.
Im grateful for trauma therapy even though it is painful to drudge those memories up.
Im grateful i got to spend 2 days with my nieces and 1 day with my youngest nephew.
Im grateful for our home and all the love we put into it.
Im grateful we have just enough.
Im grateful for the uniqueness of my daughter.
Im grateful i sometimes get to hear her singing in the othwr room.
Im grateful she sees rhe good in people before anything else.
Im grateful for this thread and all of you and your shares.
Im really grateful no one harps on me for not correcting my constant spelling errors.
I’m grateful for cool desert mornings and evenings. Did I already mention that?
I’m grateful it’s not always a bizillion degrees here in the desert. I knew it cooled off; but, it’s just so friggan awesome when it’s cooler. But not cold.
I’m grateful I don’t drink.
I’m grateful I’m not hungover and can enjoy my mornings.
I’m grateful wifey and I sat out by the fire pit last night. In the cool desert evening
I’m grateful to have the sliding door open in the morning with the screen and watching the cats and dogs sniffering away
I’m grateful I get my car to the shop today. Finally. I’m grateful I got my list so I don’t forget anything.
I’m grateful I’m getting a pedi today.
I’m grateful our meeting Monday night was about self care. I’m grateful I can do that.
I’m grateful I didn’t go to my meeting last night; instead had a nice time with the wife. Even though Monday is a terrible day to go to the shops around here. Most of them were closed. Typical for us online shoppers. We don’t know shit about shopping. Now we know. I’m grateful we still got to walk around the town center of Carefree. Sounds like a nice recovery kind of a place to live. And look at all the closed shops and art galleries. I’m grateful when my wife passed out on the couch last night I woke her up and told her I was going to bed. She eventually got her ass in gear and came to bed too after she did her litter box chores. I’m grateful, I guess, leaving her on the couch to sleep nights haven’t really done a thing for me or her. I’m grateful I tried something new. I’m grateful it made me feel better. I’m grateful I’ll just play it as I feel. I’m grateful some nights I might tell her I’m going to bed. And some nights I’ll leave her there. I’ll take it one night at a time.
I’m grateful I’ll get my cool desert walk in now before I blow it and it gets to hot.
Have a grateful day folks. It’s worth it.
Gratitude allows us to savor the unrecognized good that surrounds us, no matter what the circumstances.

I’m grateful for my husband.
I’m grateful for my boys.
I’m grateful for my extended family - I’m grateful I’ve lived far away for two decades and we still have a strong, loving bond.
I’m grateful sobriety makes me feel love for my family in a very clear way. With all our challenges and imperfections. 200 days that I’ve enjoyed this privilege so far. Very grateful.
Today I’m grateful for a lovely breakfast with an old friend. Grateful for my therapist and the insights I got today. Grateful for my cats and the snuggles I get. Grateful I can go to bed soon.
Being able to actually feel emotions, even the bad ones.

Good evening all,
I’m grateful for a nice day off of work. I’m grateful I got to hang out with my mom. I’m grateful I worked out, and made dinner. I’m grateful it’s cool enough to have the doors and windows open. I’m grateful I got to talk and laugh with my kids as we cleaned up after dinner. I’m grateful to see all of the fall colors over on the nature thread. I’m grateful for love and forgiveness.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
