I am grateful that everything happens when its supposed to, right Eric? We can try to will things in our lives but if they arent meant for us in that moment they just wont be.
I am grateful that for the first time I have found myself praying for people throughout the day. I never forced myself to pray because I was comfortable with my casual chats with the universe. As my spirituality grows and my heart opens these prayers have been flowing as natural as my constant flow of gratitude.
I am grateful that I trust my instinct more often now and that humility allows me to do this. I am grateful that my gutt knew my roast veggies belonged on the foodies thread and I am grateful I listened to it.
I am grateful for identity, I say this alotā¦
My whole life I have been misunderstood, misread, mistaken; I am so grateful to be seen by people who know.
I am grateful for music, the sharp sound of bells and the deep keys of the piano.
I am grateful that this whole list is being mailed first class to my twinnie.
I am grateful to he sober.
Itās good to see other peopleās journey @desert_rose . Hope you are better tomorrow.
I am grateful I try other ways. I donāt have the impression my life improved a lot since being sober but then by what standards do I say this?
I am grateful I feel the being overwhelmed much earlier before I explode.
I say: I let go of things I cannot change. I let go of things I cannot change. I am enough.
I am grateful I see my my weak points or pitfalls, though I donāt know how to change them yet.
I am very grateful that I could access my handstand course yesterday. Standing on my hands changes the perspective a bit. Be present otherwise you fall.
I am happy that next week itās a holiday and only 3 days work
I am grateful for my friedās cat is living with me for a few days. She helps ease the lonliness Iāve been feeling the past few days. It comes at a prize though - the wallpaper on the corners of my appartment has been torn off. I am grateful for this direct way of communicating sheās not happy being alone during the day, even though I canāt help it. I am grateful I woke up this morning and can let go of a dream filled with guilt and regret. I am grateful I donāt have these nightmare all too often anymore. I am grateful to be sober. I am grateful for a new day.
Early check in. Iām grateful I woke up. I had horrible nightmares, even crying out loud for help at 3 a.m. And woke up from it. Grateful I fell asleep again. Grateful for a hot shower to wash down all the insecure, angsty feelings. My arm hurts, my bones ache a bit, I got a slight headache already yesterday. Grateful I can feel adverse effects of the jab and not panic allthough Iām alone. Grateful I can call a friend when I feel I need help.
Grateful for our moderators here on TS
Grateful for my cats, the purring love beside me, who always manage to help calm down when anxiety becomes high

Everyone here sharing their sober journies and fight to overcome addictions.
Iām grateful to God Iām sober.
Iām grateful I wake up hangover free.
Iām grateful for cold desert mornings with clear skies and stars early in the morning outside with my dogs and my Nespresso shot. Iām grateful for my Pixie.
Iām grateful Minnie came to bed with me last night. As usual she knew I needed her company and stayed with me a couple of minutes. Iām grateful I went to bed just a little bit angry but woke up without any resentments from the night before.
Iām grateful we watched the last 2 episodes of The Patient together. @Soberbilly Glad thatās over.
Congratulations on your 6 months Billy. And a day. Good luck with the reaming. Iām on deck for one of those. Iām grateful I didnāt want to do it during peak COVID and was able to stick one in the mail they said I was good for another year. Maybe Iāll make it 2
Iām grateful I got my car back yesterday and they got it running and maintained well and the a/c is cranking. It had a leak. Iām grateful I can use my calm again to call and go back there because a decorative grill is broke. Iām grateful I could be real upset that they might have broke it when they were cleaning it. But I was reading the other day in my book Co Crazy, And someone mentioned it on here as well. Maybe my Twinnie. FACTS!! Iām going to stick with the facts, that I know. I brought it in. Its 20 plus years old. And now a decorative grill piece is broken. Another fact is I donāt know when or how it got broken.
Iām grateful for my new house cleaner. I hope to use her again. They werenāt perfect. But you know what? Neither am I. Iām grateful I donāt have to be perfect. Itās exhausting. Iām grateful Iāve been able to let that go. Most of the time.
Iām grateful when Mavy tamps on my face in bed in the early morning and doesnāt rip me a new one. Iām grateful when Alice tamps on my neck with her clawless front paws. Itās the coolest feeling. And a little less anxiety than when Maverick does it.
Iām grateful to see both dogs looking out the big sliding glass doors at the view and people walking their dogs and maintenance guys. Iām grateful when they donāt bark.
Iām grateful my wife did a butt load of laundry yesterday after our trip.
Iām grateful for this almost daily gratitude practice.
Iām grateful to be able to share it with you. YA YOU!
Gratitude is one of the most medicinal emotions we can feel. It elevates our moods and fills us with joy.
Beliefnet
going along to my slimming group even though I knew I hadnāt done too well. I feel stronger these days and more able t keep trying when things arenāt going great.
having the mindset to start afresh tomorrow.
signing up to a walking challenge in November with a workmate. It will do me good as Iāve been rubbish at getting my steps in lately.
for cuddles from puppies! My in-laws came home with two tiny furry balls today and I got to have cuddles and one of them fell asleep on me. Best thing in the world.
for an early night, and my snoring husband next to me. Tonight his sleeping sounds make me feel warm and safe and lucky to be so blessed. Tomorrow he will probably annoy me again
for having the confidence and courage to try and tackle other problems in my life because Iām not drinking.
for a clear head, sensible thoughts and a hangover free morning tomorrow.

I am grateful for insulin.
I am grateful I have enough.
Meetings. Whether you decide to share or not, it is a safe environment where you can feel comfortable & confident knowing that whatever you hear or whatever you share, it stays in the room. Plus, spending time with likeminded people is always good.
Friends and family. It feels like I donāt have a lot of people right now, but Iām ok with that. After drifting & feeling like I couldnāt confide in somebody very close to me anymore (it wasnāt anyoneās fault, itās just the way life pans out sometimesā¦), Iām grateful for those who are still in my life, and those who look out for me.
Being alive, and my sobriety. Obvious one really, but Iām learning how to deal and contend with situations differently in sobriety, something I would have 100% turned to drink to deal with previously.
I am not posting here so that constantly.
Time for a bit of gratidude today
I am grateful
to be sober. Itās getting more and more normal at nearly 100 days, but it isnātā¦ It isnāt at all, as I was sooo hardly drinking from my pov and soo autopilot driven. Itās a gift, possibility to change and especially time to heal. And if I am healing for the rest of my life itās okay too. I am grateful for it
to have a nice apartment
to still be relativity safe here
to have courage
(especially to end up toxic relationships)
I am grateful I brought up the courage to go to a debating club meeting yesterday and for all the friedly faces there. I was really scared as my social anxiety is currently getting worse again, but it turned out to be a positive experiencce. I am grateful for the possibility to work from home on some days of the week, so I can use the lunch break to do some sports. Grateful for everyones gratitude here and a bright and golden autumn day.
Another morning check- in. Today Iām grateful I slept for 10 hours. Adverse effects of the jab sent me to rest and sleep yesterday after therapy. Grateful therapy helped me to come a bit clearer with all the issues beeing spoken about in the last days. I feel like I got some glimpses of āmy wayā and I start feeling comfortable with some baby steps I alredy took. Itās not easy but itās necessary.
Grateful I had some energy today to get chores done. Grateful my cats want me to share my breakfast with them
As headache starts setting in again (same yesterday) Iām grateful I made wonderful Shangri-La tea in advance and will have some cups.
Iām grateful for sunshine, this beautiful autumn weather makes my heart light and my soul bloom
Iām on Day 10 and have had a hard time feeling grateful for anything until today.
Iām grateful to finally wake up without a headache.
Iām grateful for this community that I can turn to when Iām feeling alone.
Iām grateful for my job, my compassionate boss, and flexibility to work on my own schedule (and from home).
And Iām always grateful for my 3 cats.
