Grateful for shelter. So grateful I don’t have to be homeless and worried about the temp and where to sleep. Grateful it’s been in the 50s during the day and this cold weather won’t last. I’m a Floridian and prefer hot weather. Summer will be here before I know it. Grateful for food and hot coffee. Grateful for this community which helps my anxiety and is a good place to go when I’m in panic mode. Grateful for YouTube and its distraction from worry. Grateful for my days sober (124) Grateful for Mother Nature and life’s lessons. Grateful I will be ok one day at a time. Sometimes one hour at a time and that’s ok. Grateful for my parents dog Tucker. Grateful he understands me

I’m grateful I had my first day at a new job yesterday. There is much to learn and it’s a bit scary, but I felt very welcomed. I’m grateful they were prepared and organized for my start.
I’m grateful for this new opportunity. I’m grateful I will start this job in a completely different way than all the others - no alcohol whatsoever. I can’t wait to find out how much more I can accomplish now.
I’m grateful I had a “drinking dream” last night, in which I was traveling and there was chanpagne all around me. I could smell it and there were glasses put in my hand. I’m grateful I didn’t think of having a sip in my dream.
I’m grateful I woke up with a clear mind, ready for the challenge of the day… Bring it!

Firstly I’m grateful to read all of these posts, there’s a lot there that I can relate to. So thank you all.
On a more personal note, I’m grateful to connect all the little dots of my life that have
brought me ‘home’ to myself. The authentic, sober version who finds joy, connection, wonder, purpose, sanctuary and creativity.

I am grateful for a sober head on a cozy pillow in a house that is safe and warm. I’m grateful that I can finally see the sickness I held onto while drinking. I am grateful that I try to heal that sickness every day. I’m grateful I have this community. You all help me so much.

more, it is so beautiful 
Today I’m grateful it snowed. Finally a little bit of white covering nature 
I’m such a fall and winter person, I enjoy snow and miss it dearly when there is none in winter.
I’m grateful I adressed the nightmare issue with my psychiatrist today. He changed my sleeping meds a bit and I have to report on thursday if it works. The visit was a good one. My laboratory check is quite ok. I have to move my lazy couchloving ass and work out a little bit. Cutting food is not a problem, I’m already preparing for my fasten week. Hey, he sent me to the lab right after the holidays with all this yummi and not soooo healthy food 
The laboratory check in 2 months should look better on these 3 values. It made me smile that he said I haven’t looked this good and relaxed in years. I’m grateful he reminded me that a year of mourning has meaning. It’s ok to cry, to feel all the losses of the last year, to have hard days when letting go is too straining and holding on to things and persons hurts too much. One day at a time. Pausing on the way is fine, resting helps to regain energy. It’s important to stay on track, sitting down to take a rest is fine.
I’m grateful for Tiglat and Missi cuddling me. I still feel needy and I don’t like this feeling. It reminds me of my ex and the many times he neglected me and my feelings. Grumpy Me wants an off-button for loving and missing. Caring Me is sick of this codependent blabla. Professional Me wants to proceed with all on the desk without being bothered. I’m grateful Me Me is content with purring cats, a cozy bed, fresh laundry and snow. The rest can shut up for today. Basta.

I am currently travelling through Vietnam and am endlessly grateful for this trip and all the good things that come from it. It is paid from the money I didn’t spend on cigarettes and alcohol last year. Instead of poisening myself, I am doing something really good for body, mind and spirit.
Yesterday I was canooing with a group of people through the Halong Bay, one of the most beautiful and unique places there is in the world. We entered a hidden lagoon to take a break and it was really really beautiful. There was a guy who said: “and you know what’s going to make it even greater? Enjoying the stunning view with a cigarette!” That would have been so me a while ago. Thinking that smoking or drinking will add something good and valuable to an already outstanding moment. I am deeply grateful I am free of this sentiment!
Grateful for big bellies, joyful laughter and a peaceful mind.

I am so glad my “newbies” are starting to lay. The older girls have been free-loading. It’s getting cold again, though and may snow. These poor ladies are molting in January. They are so confused. 48 degrees today and I think 31 tomorrow? Delicious eggs from crazy ladies.

I’m grateful that hard nights don’t always have to be hard mornings. It’s ok when they are too.
I’m grateful I meditated when I couldn’t sleep.
I’m grateful I woke up feeling light, which was far from the case when I went to bed.
I’m grateful for my heart. That it keeps beating through hardships. I’m grateful I can rely on it even when I feels like I have nothing else. I have my heart and my spirit and that’s a lot.
I’m grateful I don’t have to carry the things that hurt me or hold me back.
I’m grateful for dreams. I’m grateful for when I remember them.
I’m grateful I can be open when I’m hurting.
I’m grateful I can love when I’m hurting.
I’m grateful for this moment

I am grateful to be back at a week today.
I am grateful for Marianne Williamson’s Quote, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.”
I am grateful that I am recognizing that it’s disappearing, not drinking, that I have been running toward.
I am grateful that my MBA instructor is giving me extra days to complete my assignment because I told her I am struggling.
I am grateful that I am being honest with everyone who asks that I don’t drink, nor is this a “break,” that alcohol doesn’t serve me and just makes me feel like shit.
I am grateful for a couple of warm days before the snow. Weird year, I cannot acclimate, up and down and up and down - kind of like sobriety.
I am thankful for you.

I’m grateful I thought I got 8 lousy fucken minutes for a morning meditation to start my day.
I’m grateful for the 8 glorious minutes with London Porter this morning. I’m grateful I extended that 8 minutes with Maverick. Monday morning Maverick meditation 
I’m grateful for the tears as I tried to hold on to that meditation and didn’t ever want to come out of it. Just sat in the dark for awhile and felt good.
I’m grateful for Mat Nathanson this morning and “Come On Get Higher.” And more tears.
I’m grateful for my quiet time in the morning.
I’m grateful I’ve blown off all my Al-Anon readings for the morning. Currently. All those readings makes it so real. I’m grateful I just don’t want to play right now. I’m grateful I couldn’t wait to come here instead.
I’m grateful Minnie woke up this morning. I thought she might be dead. Well that was a shift. 
She was so sound asleep and I didn’t see her chest rising and she didn’t get up while I was making coffee. I’m grateful I got down on the floor and woke her gently.
I’m grateful for another day in my world and I just have to make the best of it. Remember all my blessing. And be grateful for all I have.
I’m grateful in Al-Anon we read “Just For Today.” And one of them is a quote from Abraham Lincoln saying we are as happy as we make up our minds to be. Well fuck him!! I hate that reading.
I’m grateful I’ll try and make the best of the day. As long as I’m sober and I’m not too codependent I guess I’ll decide to be happy.
Music, it saved me
But it drives me crazy
'Cause it forces my eyes, to take a look and see
Got to decide to be happy
‘Cause it don’t always come naturally
Been feelin’ like a stranger in my body
I haven’t been myself in a while, I’m sorry (I’m sorry)
Got to decide to be happy (happy)
'Cause it don’t always come naturally.
Decide To Be Happy

I am grateful and so incredibly blessed that I get to spend today with my BSU students performing acts of service in remembrance of Dr. King. I am grateful that we have a relationship where they trust me amd know I will be a voice and advocate for them until i take my last breath. I am grateful I am sober and can commit to these amazing young adults as I would never want to miss out on these opportunities again.They fill my bucket every day. I am truly blessed.
