I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful for the nice day yesterday with friends.
I am grateful my laptop is back to life. Now with win11. Didn’t even know of this version. I hope my laptop can handle it.
I am grateful I could say out loud that I hate asking for help so often. My friends couldn’t understand. Maybe in a couple you don’t count asking you partner for help as such. For me it was an overwhelming feeling in the last weeks to overcome. To: fuuuuuuck, I have to ask again for help because I don’t know how or cannot do it all alone.
I am grateful for a new blanket. I tried a weighing blanket. Let’s see if it really improves my sleep. I already slept until 6 am ![]()
I am grateful I don’t drink. I was thinking that being happy on a Saturday afternoon on a Christmas market is only possible for longer than 15 min if you already have considerable amounts of Glühwein in your system. For me there is no other explanation possible.
I am grateful I have enough.
Haha Franzi, I love it when you swear. ![]()

Today im grateful for the opportunities God has placed in front of me.
And grateful for the path ive found for myself.
And ofcourse, for another day on this beautiful planet. ![]()

I am struggling a bit with gratitude this morning, but I’ll give it a go anyway. Once I start, there is usually more an more things coming to mind. Here we go.
I am grateful for the beautity of snowflakes - it’s such a magical moment, when they just materialize out of nowhere and come dancing down from a wintery grey sky.
I am grateful for my two best friends, whom I have known since kindergarden. They have been around through it all and I am grateful we can be chroniclers to each others paths in life and laugh about it. I am truly grateful this friendship survived the years of anger, isolation and drinking.
I am grateful I get to bake some christmas cookies today with my friends children. Its something we do every year and I just love getting all crazy about decorating the them. Its colourfulness, we are aiming for, not t prettiness.
I am grateful that alcohol doesn’t play a role there at all. It used to be mulled wine, while we were handling the cookies, but ever since I quit drinking, my friend just silently switched to christmas tea and childrens punch.
Last but not least - I am grateful I haven’t gotten tired of christmas songs yet. Have a great sober sunday, gratidudes. ![]()
Really happy you found your way back here, friend.
I’m grateful to wake up sober! Grateful to have energy, not feel shitty, and pumped to go spend time with my friends!
Good morning sober fam,
Ive been slacking on gratitude again and my meh mentality is exhausting. I hope it will improve
Im greatful feelings are temporary and fluid
Im greatful for my sobriety, 224 days free
My hubby taking me to bed after i fell asleep on the couch last night
Boscoe and his love
Walks with my sober sister
The ability to read and comprehend
Coffee
The sun and the moon and the stars
Progress not perfection
Everyone here sharing their sobriety journies
Light and love to you all
Today I’m grateful for early morning solitude.
-
Im grateful Alice only weighs 8 pounds since she likes to sleep on my neck when I go to bed.

-
Im grateful she doesn’t over stay her visit.
-
I’m grateful for all the extremely sensitive cat sensations I feel as she is purring right in my ear and her whiskers are lovingly annoying my checks and her furr is almost in my mouth, again lovingly annoying. Yet I feel so blessed and so content and mostly relaxed.
-
I’m grateful I haven’t needed any ice on my back in the morning for the past week or so or 3.
-
I’m grateful the car dealer fucked us over yesterday and we couldn’t go to the movie I really wanted to see and dinner. I happily got all my Christmas shopping done on line. We picked the car up later had an early dinner out and watched a movie at home. It was a great night.
-
I’m grateful I enjoyed Robert Duval so much in The Apostle, by myself, even though I didn’t really care for that type of movie.
-
I’m grateful for the thoughts I had last night watching The Apostle because of @Rockstar24777
(You ok Robbie? I feel like you been missing lately)
Anyway…… my grateful wild imagination last night was, suppose all us Christians were brainwashed to believe in a God of our understanding instead of Jesus. Now, I got nothing against Jesus. You all know that. But this movie just showed how the brainwashing begins at such a young age. Grateful to watch it with an open mind and it made me really think
-
I’m grateful the Bills and Jets will be on my local television station here. Go Bills!
-
I’m grateful my wife just ask me how I’m doing this morning and I said headachy and sad. I got a big groan. Not my problem. I’m only responsible for my feelings. I’m happy to feel sadness instead of resentment and to tell the truth.
-
I’m grateful For Al-Anon and getting to the point where I feel she really cannot help it. And I can’t do a fucking thing about it. Well that’s not true. I can be grateful for the time we do have together through most of the day. And I enjoyed the hell out of that movie by myself instead of playing the poor me game. Fucking progress! Am I right?




Whatever we give energy to we empower.
There is magic in empowering the good, because whatever we empower grows bigger.

That movie sounds intriguing! Years back, I heard someone say in answer to the question “What religion do you believe in?”…“All of them”. I liked that. I mean, maybe not the snake dancing or animal killing ones, but to each his own. Thanks for your share this morning, Eric!
And “Fucking progress! Am I right?
”
Yes, my friend, you are right
I’m grateful you like my share.
I love Robert Duvall. I got a list of his ten best.
This was his own passion project, writer, director, producer and star. I really got tired of some of it. But he is such an incredible actor and did an incredible job here I couldn’t stop watching it.
Today I’m grateful for doing chores. For cooking lunch. For cuddling cats. For destracting myself from the needy feeling of missing my husband and my mom and feeling lonely. It didn’t help but at least I tried.
I’m grateful that I went on a walk with a friend today, she likes to talk about herself but that was ok today. I was grateful to get home to my woodburner, I was freezing.
I’m grateful to get a job done and dusted that I didn’t want to do. It feels good to get it out of the way.
I’m grateful to have cleaned my fridge this morning, another job done.
I’m grateful my partner didn’t drink last night, I was in bed and he text to say he was thinking of driving to the shop. I told him to play it through, he didn’t go.
I’m grateful ![]()
Good afternoon, its 1:11.
I am grateful I feel hungry.
I am grateful I feel love, and sadness and peace.
I am grateful that I can recognize my emotions as a normal thing today and not try to label myself as moody or unstable.
I am grateful that I dont sit in sadness for too long and that I can easily feel happy again. That is not unstable, that is a blessing.
I am grateful that I am done trying to find out whats “wrong” with me. I finally have my answer, I am an addict.
I am grateful this disease can be arrested.
I am grateful my perspective has changed. Sometimes nourishing myself looks like peeling the plastic off the top of prewashed spinach and eating it right out of the package. I cant take the chance I will be overwhelmed by too much prepping… Last year I was berating myself for this. “Youre so fucked still, how can you be so damaged, you cant even handle cooking…” and this year I see these behaviors so differently. " Wow, that is so smart and resourceful, what a great way to work within your tolerance." I am grateful for therapy, wow am I ever grateful for therapy. Even though I am still unwell, I dont feel spiritually bankrupted which is such a gift. I am grateful that my soul is full, that I love myself and understand the sick, scared parts of my psyche.
I am grateful for my journey, this beautiful journey. ![]()
Today I’m grateful for:
-a roof over my head
-my job
-hiking/nature
-grape juice (sub for wine
)
Grateful for my home made pumpkin spice latte, for my quiet time, for my fluffy dog on my lap resting peacefully.
I’m grateful for the cold weather and the blankets and pillows I have to keep me
and my family warm.
I’m grateful I made two batches of Christmas cookies and my kids really are enjoying them.
I’m grateful for the holidays coming soon, and the fact that I plan to spend time with my extended family…first time sober. I’m looking forward to learning what it’s all about, a new experience!
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I slept well, I even fell asleep at 4 am for an hour.
I am about to take the bike. It’s funny somehow to observe my thoughts, calculations. It’s below -10 degree which is a bit cold for this time of the year and for my hands. Because no matter which gloves my hands will take the surrounding temperature ![]()
I am grateful for a nice call with a friend yesterday.
I am grateful I don’t dread Sundays anymore. I actually like them.
I am grateful I don’t work somewhere where I have to sell shit for gold.
I am grateful I have enough.

Good morning all,
I’m grateful for my life today, and that I feel like I am actually living instead of of surviving from drink to drink. I’m grateful for a clean and warm home, and the family in it. I’m grateful we have enough ( I love that saying Franzi). I’m grateful for love and forgiveness.
Everyone have a wonderful day ![]()
