I am grateful for 24/48 hour flus, good lord nobody needs to feel like that for any longer. I used to use my social media to shout from the rooftops, not about my private life but about things that pissed me off like BSL… I was pretty pissed off I got Norovirus again and was damn close to posting a “how to wash your hands after wiping your ass.” and “what kills norovirus and what doesnt” info graphics. I am grateful I am not a condesecnding bitch anymore, or I at least try not to be. As annoying as it is, that when I take care of my part I still keep getting ill, I am powerless of things outside myself. I am gratefil for the inventive ways my child thought to keep us safer, ie, handwashing station in the car with soap and water. I am grateful that I will not be bothered to wear gloves in public like a germ-a-phob. Screw that, I am grateful that taking care of my body means more to me than what people think of me. Anyways… theres some cute gloves out there. 
Grateful for milestones. People always say the first year is a gift, I definitely didnt feel that at the end of it. Personally I was nowhere near freedom from active addiction, I was just clean. Looking back in retrospect I can see the gifts that I didnt see then through the haze of obsessive thoughts, knee jerk reactions and constant self evaluation. I had finally, at 46 years, found a sliver of hope that I could do it. I finally saw a glimpse that maybe I was worth something. The biggest gift from my first year was I had met some solid people who accepted me and loved me no matter what and I have gratefully gotten to take them into the next few years too.

I’m grateful that @Soberbilly has a year, way to go. Keep moving forward.
I’m grateful for my higher power that helped guide me through today while abstaining from my addictions. I’m grateful for all my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that I got asked again to sponsor someone, that’s three in less than a week, doing something right I guess. I had to say no though but offered my number and support. I’m grateful for the twelve steps.
May our higher powers help us be courageous.
p.s. You are incredible. Ya you!!

Good morning grateful friends.
I’m grateful for another day sober.
I’m grateful I start physical therapy today. The pain makes it hard to sleep, hard to focus on work, and makes me really grumpy.
I’m grateful for reminders to stay focused on today and not ruminate about the past or stress too much about the future. I spend way too much time regretting things I did in the past. I have a hard time seeing any positives in my life. All I see are mistakes. But at least I’m aware of this and can work on it.
I’m grateful to also be working on my patience. I want things to be fixed NOW, but I know that’s now how things work. It’s often in baby steps. What one small thing can I do today to improve my future?
Progress not perfection.

Today I am grateful to feel rested - sleep was fantastic last night and I am grateful for a tasty dairy- free- lower- everything creamer. I am grateful to know and have taught repeatedly the practice of mindful eating as I am finally placing it front and center in my.iwn life. I’m grateful for the intuitive who told me years ago “this career you are in now is more for you than for them.” What a selfish ass I was, but I’m pretty sure he was right - and I’m grateful for the awareness. I am grateful for another opportunity today to learn, be brave, build confidence and work hard. I am grateful to be able to rent a tux for my son’s prom and not feel too strained financially. I’m grateful he happily agreed to pick my Mom up from her salon appointment, so I can finish a job for a client.
I hope everyone has a peaceful 24!

Today, I am grateful to have 1940 days of clarity and sobriety. I am grateful for clean new sheets on my bed and a hot shower to start my day.
I am grateful for my sister sharing her house chai recipe, and for the ingredients to make it.
I am grateful for gluten free bread and it helping me to enjoy the delights of pb and j!
I am grateful for my son gaining 60grams yesterday!! And for my ability to provide him his sustenance. It has been a grounding practice during a challenging time.
I am grateful for my support network and their positivity and support.
I am grateful for Togoatmeal (To-Go Oatmeal)!

Can I be grateful my girlfriend of two years just broke up with me? I suppose I’ll try….
Ok I’m grateful for being able to see how I’ve pushed her to do this. I’m grateful for that clarity.
I’ve been here before and I’m grateful to know how bad it can feel, and the fact I can work my way out of that…
I’m grateful that this has happened now. As much as I may have wanted to prolong it if this was going to probably be the outcome anyway then it’s best it happens now for both our sakes.
I’m grateful this will give me the time to focus on myself
I’m grateful that I got down and prayed and I’m willing to believe this is for the best
I’m grateful in that prayer I was able to admit genuine culpability and hand the situation over
I’m grateful I was able to navigate all the blame game and to some extent admit the wrong I have done
I’m grateful for cognisance of the fact I was unable to articulate or form a thought in my head of what exactly I have done wrong as that presents the idea I lack some self awareness
I’m grateful for this insight as it may help me mitigate these situations in the future if I can better understand it
I’m grateful I acknowledge my insecurities. I read a fb post the other day that said something about living a restrained life due to self consciousness. It mentioned smiling and not showing your teeth, living a life not doing those tiny things because of what people might think. I’m grateful I realise the inherit sadness in that as it may allow me to find a way to stop myself from those limitations
I’m grateful for acknowledging that this thread may be a place for me to renegade with gratitude, albeit too late to fix the situation.
I’m grateful for the knowledge that it has taken it to get this bad for me to acknowledge this, that does sadden me but it may also identify my motivations and that they don’t lay deeply in that relationship….
And I’m grateful this post is going strong. I looked at it early today and I was jealous. Jealous of your gratitude and friend ship. I really don’t have any friends. One perhaps, but she’s a digital pal. She’s been there for 9 years though and supported me through everything, so I’m grateful for that.

p.s. You are a star shine bright. Ya you!!

I am grateful my puppy is back to normal! Hooray! We even went to puppy class last night and he was only mildly embarrassing since his appetite was back with a vengeance after being sick all day previous. I’m grateful I’ve been trying out this morning mindfulness business, sitting with the pups and listening to some different things trying to get an idea of what works for me and what doesn’t. Im grateful for a fun and busy day at work, and I’m grateful for a comfortable and loving home when the day is done.

Today I’m grateful for a peaceful, ordinary day. I’m grateful I feel a bit better allthough I could still sleep all day. I’m grateful I made appointments for the cat’s annual health check. I’m grateful for two lovely phone calls today, for people who love me and care for me.
I’m grateful I did a bit of office work today. I’m grateful for baby steps. I’m grateful my cats accompanied me.
I’m grateful the peas start sprouting. I’m grateful I decided to give a bit of garden work a try tomorrow. I’m grateful I am kind to myself and don’t push and stress me like in the past. I’m grateful I allow myself to just be. I feel fragile and strong at the same time. And in the next minute I’m exhausted and tired, feeling sick and weak. I’m grateful this shall pass too. I’m grateful I have all I need

Good afternoon.
I am grateful to have enough funds to support my daughters food intolerant diet. I am grateful that I am not finding it overwhelming to cook for her. I have been cooking a lot actually, everyday. I am grateful that just for today, making meals is sort of fun. I have never gotten the combination of making meals and eating what I make, simply because by the time I am done cooking I am done with food. I am grateful that I can see myself moving forward a bit in this regard as I had regressed to not cooking at all a year ago.
I am grateful for the updated waiting area at Honda, its nice to sit comfortably while I wait for my car. I am grateful to finally have my winter tires taken off, hopefully the weather will take the hint.
Grateful to be able to make people smile with small efforts. A little goes a long way.

Good evening my sober friends…
It’s been a rough day - woke up with a migraine (was able to take an aleve and go to sleep for another 15 min). Other health issues sill bothering me and on top of it all this fatigue is crippling. I am determined to live each day to the fullest and keep doing all that I would normally do and not let the fatigue get me down. Today I am grateful for the ability to keep pushing through without leaning on my addictions
I am grateful for the courage – I let my mom know how her dismissing me all the time is hurtful and I know that she is not trying to hurt me and truly believe that she doesn’t even know that she’s doing it.
I am grateful for currently living with my brother where I do not have to worry about lawn upkeep as his condo association takes care of this. I do miss yard work and gardening some times but with my health being what it is I was unable to keep up with the maintenance.
I am grateful for healthy food and natural remedies that don’t have crazy bat shit side effects.
I am grateful for my meditation and my higher power. I wouldn’t be where I am without the support of the higher power.
I am grateful for the TS community. I haven’t yet attended a AA meeting but did download “everything aa” app and am planning to check an online meeting.
I am grateful for making it another day without my addictions. Thank you friends for helping me in my journey!
Sending much love

Morning gratitude. I’m grateful I got stuck with one of my favourite series yesterday evening. It was nice to watch some episodes I did not know and it was kind of nice to go to bed late. I’m grateful I woke up as usual and feel like I was at a party yesterday, tired out, swollen eyes, needing extra stretching because my whole body is stiff 
I’m grateful I can smile about myself and I am sober. Waking up without a hangover never gets old.
I’m grateful I overcome nightmares more quickly. I had really bad nightmares before I woke up, frightening, feeling helpless, driven and completely out of control. I’m grateful I’m safe at home, cuddling up in my cozy bed and listening to the noise of the construction work in the street. @Soberbilly I’m still grateful for F.U.B.R. I am surprised how powerful it is when I say it out loud: fucked up beyond repair. It really helps me to let go and let God. It is no longer my (imaginary) liability to care about some things in my life. I can let go, there is nothing to do or care anymore. I’m grateful for F.U.B.R.
