Morning gratitude
Grateful for :
Waking up to see some sunshine, even just a little bit.
Grateful when I did my daily check in, it wasnāt enough I needed to come here to the gratitude thread.
Grateful itās Saturday.
Grateful I will get it for a nice walk today.
Grateful I want to eat healthy today.
Grateful to have a garden.
Grateful to have a home.
Grateful that I realise when I feel unmotivated and canāt think properly, that is ok to not think too hard, grateful I understand just for today all I need to do is put one foot in front of the other, and enjoy the day, donāt set myself tasks, and to just see and be grateful for what does happen or get done and appreciate today for what it is.
Grateful my cleaning is always so simple, grateful for this because it wasnāt always like that.
Grateful my son is a loving, caring and thoughtful young man. Grateful he isnāt up to what I was at his age.
More than grateful that he doesnt do anything wrong, doesnāt smoke or drink. I put him off im sure !
Grateful when I feel like drinking and talk about it, or talk about maybe one day in the future my sonās response is said in soft gentle voice with very much seriousness
āI canāt imagine that your life goal for the future is just to want to be able to have a drink, when you know how it will end, thereās so much more to life mum, Iām proud of you for who you are todayā
Iām grateful he says this in the most caring way, but at the same time makes me feel wow that is sad thatās sometimes what my goal is for the future is to have a drink one day out of everything in the world.
Iām grateful he tells me truth without shaming me or mentioning the times I was not great.
Iām grateful for his love, his trust in me, for the young man that I brought up and the good decisions he makes for him self.
Iām grateful for any one reading this, Iām grateful for all of us here who also encourage eachother and hold hands through the most difficult parts of ourselves.
Thank you for being here for me, that I am grateful forever for.
Have a blessed day
Good morning to all from super snowy southern Wisconsin!
Iām grateful to be sober today and all the days. Itās Saturday morning and I slept well and am ready to face the first day of spring break with more than 6 inches of fresh snow! Wooot!
Iām grateful to have a safe and loving home.
Iām grateful to have made it to the spring break week of vacation in a decent way for a challenging school year.
Iām grateful to have the means to travel for a few days this upcoming week and visit friends and get away to a cabin in the woods.
Iām grateful to have strategies to protect my sobriety this week. 30 plus years of seeing vacation as a time to drink means I still have a lot of planning to do for the sake of sobriety. We will be visiting with friends who are supportive and some who are even newer to sobriety than the hubby and me.
Iām grateful to have this comfy chair, hot cup of coffee and my annoying cat.
Iām grateful to realize we are 10 weeks out from my summer break! Wooot!
Iām grateful to be healthy and happy. A long phone call with my brother reminds me how hard life can be when mental health and relationships are not going well. I hope he can find his way.
Iām grateful to have work that I mostly enjoy. Now that we are 3/4 of the way thru the school year, I can really see some progress!
Iām grateful to have resources. My life is very good at the moment and each day I reflect on how far Iāve come. And I appreciate what I have now in terms of peace.
I wish you all peace.
Way to go!! Outstanding!
I hope you are feeling great!
Good morning grateful friends!
Iām grateful for another day sober.
Iām grateful I was able to sleep in a bit. Grateful the random hip pain in the middle of the night is better.
Iām grateful the sun is shining and it will be warm today. I plan to go to the nearby park for a walk. The trail is right along the water and itās beautiful there.
Iām grateful to be back to therapy. We talked about some of the things I realized going through the IOP about my childhood and early adult life that I never really processed. My people pleasing, need for external validation, low self esteem. So we have lots to work on. My depression and anxiety have always been my biggest triggers to drink so definitely need to address those.

So so grateful for everything and everyone right now. Iāve made it to 3 weeks clean and sober and feeling awesome about it.
I feel so great Iām pretty certain itās illegal to feel like I do.
Miraculous.
I was,past tense,triggered the same way. MDD major depressive disorder and severe p.t.s.d. Meds and therapy have helped immensely. But for me my best tool is daily meditation. Praying for you Karen. Youāre doing great.
Good morning sober fam! Happy saturday!

Good morning all,
Iām grateful itās the weekend! Iām grateful for leftover coffee that reheated nicely. Iām grateful for sunshine and cool breezes. Iām grateful for the beautiful, vibrant purple flowers on my back porch, and that I moved them so now they are one of the first things I see in the morning. Iām grateful for a mostly clean house, and that I have overcome the thought that it always has to be perfectly clean ( well, mostly) and I can just enjoy it. Iām grateful for love and forgiveness.
Everyone have a wonderful day
Happy Saturday!
I am grateful my weird eye inflammation seems to be improving with no more intervention than warm and cold compresses and not frickinā touching it!
I am grateful for the hummingbirds that hover out my back windows that seem to be an invitation to a lovely day.
I am grateful I have no big plans today and I can choose to do, or not do, anything.
I am grateful for the calm of not drinking.
Take care all!
I am grateful I maintained my sobriety with friends in town and going out in downtown Vegas! Although my wife was worried about me I kept my promise to myself, my family, and in faith to stay sober and choose it everyday! Where I might normally be hungover heading to baseball practice this morning I am fully sober and just a tad sleepy thank you sober family happy Saturday! 81 days for me today also!
Iām grateful to be home and surrounded by my pets this morning. Iām grateful for Benson on my lap and Alice jumping up on my lap anyway. AdiĆ³s Burner and now Alice purring loudly by the fireplace.
Iām grateful I made it home safely.
Iām grateful for acceptance.
Iām grateful I have warm layers because Iām freezing my nay-nays off.
Iām grateful for the the warm welcome by the old dog girl. She canāt hear me and was asleep on her bed. But when she finally saw me she was so excited to see me. Iām grateful for unconditional doggy love. And Benson too. Iām grateful for my needy, anxious, over licking, bark at anything and everything dog. Ya thatās the Ol Burner
Iām grateful I like turkey burgers.
Iām grateful we got Daisy her well check today and weāve gotten the dogs done last week or so. Iām grateful Iām proactive to schedule this shit way in advance otherwise Iād be up a creek. Iām grateful my vet has an app and itās very helpful with 6 pets and my old age keeping track of everybodyās shots and vaccines. Iām grateful for the 3 year booster shots when we can get them.
Iām grateful for acceptance. Again
Iām grateful I got through todayās meditation challenge. I didnāt like it. Iām grateful for my open mind because I plan to try it again at a different time under different circumstances and see if I like it better that way.
Iām grateful for all of you from all around the world. Iām grateful for the bond we have made here.
When we focus on gratitude, the tide of disappointment goes out, and the tide of love rushes in.

Today Iām grateful itās saturday and I take a resting day. Iām grateful for the fresh vegetables at the farmerās market, I think I bought a bit too much. I love fresh salad and radish.
Iām grateful it rained at night, we needed the rain urgently. Iām grateful I played with cats in abundance yesterday and today. It makes me and them happy.
Iām grateful I did a lot of garden work this week. Iām grateful a friend will help me next week to clear and clean the glashouse.
Iām grateful for therapy yesterday evening. I feel content and work at my pace. This gives me self-confidence and a positive attitude. One day at a time, step by step doing what I can. It adds up and Iām very grateful that I take my time, rest, do what I can and worry less about the future.
Iām grateful for friends near and afar and here on TS. It warms my heart.
Iām grateful for all I have, for nice neighbours, for dancing with myself yesterday and for all the books that wait for me to read them.
Have a relaxing weekend.
Iām very grateful for another day, and another day sober at that! Iām grateful to be surrounded by beautiful horses and the extraordinary beauty of nature here in NM, the land of enchantment. Iām grateful my dogs listen to me and can be off leash. Iām grateful for the work I put into training with them. Iām grateful I feel free of othersā expectations. Iām grateful to know so many people in recovery, to me we are some of the most generous, thoughtful, deeply sensitive people Iāve ever met. I wonder why we seem to run from it or hide it, or at least I did.
Thatās outstanding! That is not an easy place to be sober. Way to go!
Iām greatful to be sober
Iām greatful for my wife and her extraordinary will power to win the day. She has mental illness but chooses everyday to get up and be active. And she supports my dicions and guids me to make the right decisions
Iām greatful I can relax and that my life is honestly pretty easy. No worries there
Iām greatful for TS for all the advice I read about everyday. Itās super helpful
Iām greatful for my simple kitty who gets kicks out of paper bags
Iām greatful I chose to leave my old life behind me. It caused me more suffering and pain then i could ever deal with.
Iām greatful I woke up today because itās not garenteed
Everything is ok over here
Tell me about it, I live here lol but honestly I find I enjoy the city so much more being able to take everything in I love about it sober. I love being able to get up the next day and function normally and not have to deal with being hungover!
