Good morning I am grateful for an early start to my day. I am grateful for insight timer and the meditations I chose at 4 am. I am grateful for the live event I got to attened at 6:30 because I was up so early. I am grateful I had time to log into my 8 am yoga class online because I would not have had time to go in person before my dentist appointment.
I am grateful I go to the dentist today. When I was in active addiction at one point it had been 10 years since I had seen a dentist and had a professional cleaning. I just kept putting it off and putting it off and then of course ny mind got the better of me and fear took over. I am very hard to freeze and have super sensitive teeth. I ended up with such bad dentist anxiety I just wouldnt go. I am grateful I at least knew enough to take obsessively good care of my teeth myself even through my meth addiction. I am grateful that for the last 7 years I have been getting my teeth cleaned professionally every 4 months. I am grateful I have all my teeth.
I am grateful that my Dr is convinced this latest āfluā I had was food poisoning. I am grateful for that because I was starting to really question my immune system. I have basically been unwell since September with 5-10 days of āhealthā between illnesses. I am grateful that I know that there is something I can do to correct my immune system and it starts with eating better. I am grateful I am open to the idea.
Today Iām grateful for my brain. I like my brain, itās gorgious. It works. Iām grateful I did a huge part of my homework on finances for my lawyer today. Iām grateful it pays that Iāve been doing all the finances and business stuff for more than 30 years. Iām grateful I know what I do and get the results that I need. Iām grateful for a very productive day.
Iām grateful for leftovers, for cats on the desk, for a long lunch break.
Itās evening, Iām tired, one hour left on the online seminar I booked yesterday spontaneously. Itās free and itās obligatory for organic farmers here. Iām grateful for no costs and interesting speakers and content Iām very grateful I donāt have to leave the house for education. I love being at home, slouching in my office chair, legs on the desk, sipping tea, muting the current speaker because his content is non-relevant for me.
Grateful for my cozy house, the comfy bed, for living alone and nobody stressing me.
Of course! And I feel grateful you have the wherewithal to check out RD. Itās worth a try. Iām grateful I found out about Recovery Dharma here from @Thirdmonkey . It changed my trajectory. Iām grateful my daughter is feeling a bit better culture results are pending but likely streptococcus. She was sick af. Grateful for Hungry Ghosts United. Grateful for Refuge Recovery. Grateful for TS. Grateful for you. Yup,you know the rest. Hope yāall have a peaceful day. Namaste God guru and Self are One
Struggling with my anxiety and mental health today so I figured I should find some gratitude even if Simple. Also have 6 days of catching up to do on here!!
Grateful for a full stomach. Grateful for my room and shelter . This is my safe place even when it doesnāt feel like that. Grateful for being able to spend time with the family dog tucker yesterday. Grateful I was able to move my Therapy appointment sooner. Grateful for lemonheads and airheads candy. Grateful for chamomile tea. Grateful Iām realizing coffee does not help me anymore. Coffee makes me feel like Iām being Chased by the police or something. Grateful for the weather being nice. A little cold for me but not to bad. Grateful Even though Iām struggling alcohol and pills do not seem like a solution. Alcohol and pills will make things worse. Grateful for the endless music on YouTube. Grateful for Netflix and the endless shows. Not grateful I finished all 18 seasons of Greys Anatomyā¦ but grateful for the lessons I learned from the show. Grateful I will find something new to watch. Grateful for the rain sounds that constantly play on my laptop to help me stay calm. Grateful for long walks. Grateful Iām alive and physically healthy. Very grateful for this community. Makes me feel less alone

Iām grateful to close out another wonderful sober trip, meeting my grandson. Iām grateful they let me hold him while they got to eat. Iām grateful I can understand their anxiety and that they donāt think I know what Iām doing. And thatās ok. I grateful I have the sober confidence to know what the fuck Iām doing with a ten day old. Heās has only been home a week.
Iām grateful my daughter laughed when I sent her and updated selfie from couch to kitchen while they were eating to show her he was breathing and his nose and mouth wasnāt blocked.
Iām grateful when the new parents didnāt want us around I convinced my wife to stick with the facts. Even though we flew ALL the way out here, the fact is, wifey and I had a great mini vacation going to Santa Monica and Malibu beaches instead of being butt hurt thinking made up scenarios about why they didnāt want us around and what we did wrong.
Iām grateful for my new family and they are going to be ok.
Iām grateful I got to buy Gus his first hoodie.
Iām grateful for the joy and gratitude the new Dad had on his face when we brought the hoodie home and the deep blue tie dye onesie. With matching hat. Iām grateful heās going to be a great Dad to my grandson.
Iām grateful the visit is over and we get to go home and get the pets. Iām grateful we can space it out another month before we have to board them all again to go see Chonky Girl Norma.
Iām grateful I love being a grandpa. I was pretty scared of having children brought into this fucked up world. I still am. But I can be sober grandpa and use my tools to control the only thing I can control. Me. And how I look at things. Iām grateful I now know how to look at things and be grateful. Itās so much more fun.
See heās breathing his nose and mouth isnāt blocked.
āAs with all commandments, gratitude is a description of a successful mode of living. The thankful heart opens our eyes to a multitude of blessings that continually surround us.ā

I am grateful I can surprise myself. I do things, although maybe tiny ones which I wouldnāt have done some years ago. Calling people and clarifying things. Making my point and not giving in.
I called insurance company to tell them that I have no interest to change my diabetes stuff Provider. Maybe I was a but harsh but after calling them earlier this week and they told me the opposite of what was written in a letter I got today, I thought
I went to the cashierās to ask back some money I paid for but didnāt have. I would have been too ashamed to do this given the low amount but itās the tiny things I can grow as well.
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I have work.
I am grateful itās the weekend.
Grateful to see Tucker again.
Give him a pet from me.
Iām grateful my daughter had Scrubs on TV in the background the last couple of days. Itās a great fun show to watch along side Greys Anatomy. Good laughs. Iāve watched every season of Greyās since it started. Waiting to see if thereās a 20.
Hahaha! My ultra talented artist son made that for me. So,Art Cloakey the creator of Gumby was a practicing Buddhist. Wait,thereās more. In that photo you may notice Gumby is holding a coin on his tray. I havenāt a clue where it came from but it has hands folded in prayer on one side and the Serenity Prayer on the other. Gumby is sitting on my copy of Ram Dass first book,Be Here Now. And the framed pic in the background is my boy asleep at a gfās house when he was 4 years old. Btw,he arrives for a 4-day visit this afternoon. Iām stoked. Havenāt seen him since he and Les brought me home from the rehab hotel May 27th. My friend Bianca,who I connected with virtually on our rehabās alumni page is visiting with her daughter tomorrow. Iām a happy lil hippie! (Bianca and Anika refer to me as hippie Bill). Itās Fryway fo sho.
