I am grateful for such a full weekend filled with recovery and celebration. Grateful that i endured the uncomfortable birthday meeting and was granted the rewards. Grateful my parents and sister came and grateful to learn of their feelings about me and this journey i started a year and a couple weeks ago. Grateful im trusting the process and allowing myslf to be in uncomfortable places.
Im grateful for meditation and prayer, and the difference i feel in my soul when i practice them. Im grateful for some joy this weekend to lift my spirits and stregthen my resolve to keep doing what im doing and fighting the fights i must return to this Monday morning.
Grateful for my girls. Grateful for their tenacious selves that teaches me so much on a regular basis. Grateful for spiritual principles. Grateful for my space heater. Grateful for my home. Grateful im clean and no longer hostage to dope. Grateful for this new work week in which i have the potential to learn.
Good morning yāall! Iām super grateful for a weekend spent celebrating with friends, and Iām super duper grateful that even though I spent a lot of time at drinking establishments I never wanted to drink or felt weird, which I didnāt expect to want to drink but you never know and I was a bit worried about feeling weird. I mostly felt discomfort just being around a lot of people for extended periods of time which I suppose is a thing I should work on. Iām grateful to have gotten to come home and read, rest and decompress after, and that I got a lot of chores done yesterday. Iām grateful to have woken with a minimum of grumbling this morning, although that was partly because I heard a suspicious noise in the living room and the puppy was suspiciously absent so I didnāt have much time for grumbling. I wish that social engagements felt less like ordeals to endure, even when itās just me and my favorite people. It feels good to be settling in to my normal routine again though.
My daily gratitude is I live to live another day. God blessed me to be able to open my eyes this morning, I have the ability to use all of my limbs, and I have all of my Facilities.
Sunny here this morning, I walked outside and let the sun shine on my face. Got up washing clothes, doing things around the house. About to cook breakfast something I donāt normally do on a work day, working from home today.
Letās get it!
Well that didnāt work. Lol
I am grateful that:
today is day 48 sober.
I made it through airport checkin and security in about 15 minutes.
Iām going to spend the week in Denver for business.
I am grateful for God, family, friends, Sponsor, AA, and this community!
Iām grateful 
Iām grateful for ODAAT and another day closer to getting the fuck outta here. 
Iām grateful for 20 degree -6 c abundant sunshine. Iām grateful it doesnāt look windy out.
Iām grateful Iām getting more āBā time in the morning. 
Iām grateful for my Alice time.
Iām grateful Iām in tune to the old dog girl, especially at night. Iām grateful she got up at 9:30 pm last night so I let her out and got to bed early.
Iām grateful I started off my day with a voice message from Julie. We are so excited to see each other again. Iām grateful her daughter-in-law is already planning a Saturday afternoon menu for us down in Beckley on their farm. Wherever the hell that is 
Iām grateful for slogans and acronyms and alliterations, in recovery. Iām grateful I read a new one today. I want to get off the rollercoaster 
but I keep buying tickets 
Yes I Do! on both.
Iām grateful I can get to my mantra meditation later today because I didnāt feel like it this morning.
Iām grateful for Julieās pics of spring in her garden.
Iām grateful for my life and the holding patterns I get in before my adventures.
Iām grateful to be here with all you G-Dudes and Dudettes

I am grateful that drinking alcohol is not an option, the only option anymore.
[/quote]
Iām grateful too that drinking is not āthe only option.ā Anymore. I never that of it that way. It really was the only option. For the longest time drinking was the only option. We were so sick.
And Iām grateful for your metaphor about you or us being a replanted plant in a different soil.
I just love this.
Always always grateful you are here.
And you know, Iāve loved watching you grow into such a strong wonderful woman following you the past 3 plus years. You rock!
First time righting down what Iām grateful for (my therapist is gonna love).
Iām thankful for my IOP.
Welcome Maria.
Lights are always on here.
Gotta make your own coffee though. 
I hope to see more of you when your comfortable. Have a good read around. This gratitude business works.
Today Iām grateful that i get to spend time with my son and that we are able to go out and have a good time in this giant arcade and fun center
Evening gratitude. I wasnāt feeling very grateful this morning.
Iām grateful for another day sober.
Iām grateful for the sunshine.
Iām grateful my migraine medicine helps and currently my head feels okay.
Iām grateful I was able to cook dinner tonight.
Iām grateful for my bf and spending time together.
Good evening all,
Iām grateful today was beautiful and sunny and cool. Iām grateful the Jasmine on my back porch is blooming and it scents the air drifting into the house. Iām grateful I picked 4 beautiful strawberries off my plants today. Iām grateful my kids both had good first days back to school after spring break. Iām grateful Iām tired from work, and I know Iāll sleep well tonight.
Iām grateful that gratitude is so powerful, and that we all share it with each other.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
Iām grateful to God for guiding me through this day and helping me remain clean and sober. Iām grateful for all my family and friends. Iām grateful for my health.
May our higher powers bring us peace.
p.s. You are important. Ya you!!
Today Iām grateful I woke up early to a yoga class. That I saw the sunriseā¦that I noticed how the small garden in front of my house is in absolute full bloom and beautiful! Hubby and I poured a lot of time into making it like thatā¦
Iām grateful I noticed how the rain after work yesterday was so prettyā¦perfect drops that were enough to see, but not too much to get anyone drenched. With sunshine. Called my husband to tell him about it, silly as it sounded (he is away). He asked: āDo you think there will be a rainbow?ā And sure enough, I saw one on my way home.
Iām grateful I notice beauty in small things. Gives me the extra energy to face the big challenges and not sweat the small stuff
Have a wonderful day, everyone!
Iām grateful:
- for the āme timeā and my morning ritual (after my son goes to school),
- for the one day trip a frieand I will (hopefully) go to this weekendā¦ at least, Iām grateful we can plan it,
- for my son behaving well at school in the last week or so (he has great grades for now and lots of interests, but sometimes he talks with a friend during classes and he most definitely procrastinates doing his homework )
- for the one-on-one online lesson (italian literature etc.) I have at 09.30,
- for my comfortable and beautiful home
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I slept uninterrupted until past 7.
I am grateful itās not raining or snowing today.
I am grateful for my family.
I am grateful when I saw my grandmother this past Saturday she recognised me. On pictures she doesnāt anymore.
I am grateful I donāt drink anymore. I sometimes play the tape through. And I am grateful it stops right by picking up a bottle as the following steps would be just detrimental.
I am grateful that putting up the luggage rack on my gravel bike was so easy and the diameter of the screws were fitting. 
I am grateful I joined the yoga class yesterday and didnāt cry during savasana.
I am grateful I have enough.
Edit:
I am grateful that my grandmother passed the point where she recognises that she is forgetting or doesnāt know things anymore.
I am grateful that I am not too sad about it. Sounds hard. But I am over the point of correcting her like when she is sooo amazed that I can drive a car (I am 41). I am grateful I can feel with my mother how hard it must be and I find it so funny when she tells me that you cannot go into a forest as my grandmother would stop at every tree and complaining how untidy everything is, well not an english garden.
I am also grateful I could so feel with my brother last night when he told me of his biking and the weather (no cloud when he left the house only to get soaking and freezing wet 5 min before back home and back home the sun came out again. I am grateful I know the feeling of having so much wind in the face that you are constantly debating with yourself what is better. Giving up and crying in rage or keep going on. 
Im grateful im starting to feel better after the tia mini stroke i experienced a couple weeks back. Im grateful my adult sons have been taking turns giving me a hand.
Grateful for attempting a sober life again.
Today I am grateful for our home, four-legged family members and all, and for quality time with my son. Iām grateful to still be able to care for him with meals, support and simply being there, though heās almost grown. Iām grateful for the opportunity to be away from the corporate world and assemble work opportunities that I am actually passionate about. I am grateful that my best friendās oven fire was only that and nothing else was harmed in her house. Iām grateful to have to opportunity to cook for a family today as I have always been self conscious about my cooking and they help me to feel more confident. I am grateful for the breath of fresh air manager i spoke to yesterday about a part time job, as she seems more genuine and funnier than any boss Iāve ever known. I am grateful for recovery books and apps like this, as well as this practice. Wishing everyone a peaceful day.
Hey hey! Today Iām grateful for a lovely sunrise while I was walking my beasties about. Grateful that even though it was cold, you can tell the warm spring weather is just right around the corner. Iām grateful that it occurred to me that my anxiety and discomfort around social situations is probably partly just my regular anxiety problems but also, importantly I think?, my alcoholism has basically trained me to dread these situations because Iād either be worried I couldnāt drink to āmanage my anxietyā, or I could drink but then Iād get drunk and stupid, or I would be hungover and nauseous when the event came around which there were always pretty good odds if I wasnāt drunk or drinking I was hungover soā¦anyway, Iām grateful thatās not my life anymore. Iām grateful that there are an infinite number of ways my life is improved by my sobriety and that I discover more of them each day.
