Good morning friends,
Iām grateful for a long sleep, after a loooong and tiring week. Iām grateful to hear birds chirping, and small airplanes flying around outside. Iām grateful my life is so much simpler now, and I can keep it that way. Iām grateful to share in everyoneās experiences from milestones, traveling, triumphs, to the simple day to day, and even with struggles. Iām grateful for wonderful writers like @M-be-free49 and @LAB who can put word to what I feel so perfectly. @LAB Your post this morning made me smile and lift my chin a little higher. You are right, things arenāt called hard and stressful for no reason, but we can and do make it through them. Iām grateful @I.cant.We.can felt comfortable to tell us about his relationship. Iām grateful for my friends and family.

Too much to catch up.
Today Iām grateful for life. For seeing a cute dog and a really nice talk with the dog parents, for cuddles and petting a big young wellbehaved furball. I last saw and lived with a howawart in my youth and I love the breed. My heart melted and Iām utmost grateful for this encounter out of the blue 
Iām grateful I saw my ex-BIL and his girlfriend from afar at the hardware store. I hope they did not see me, I took a turn. Donāt want to meet them again in my life after the bullshit they caused on my ex - and that I cleared because he was unable to deal with it. Fuck, I did too much for him to be treaten like he does. I should have kicked him to deal with his bullshit years ago instead of caring, loving and thus enabling him. Fuck, Iām too good at what Iām doing and I did way too much for him. If I could go back, I would just kill myself BEFORE I even got out out of hospital when I was born. I would not miss a fucking moment.
Why am I grateful for this? Because I have lifelong friends with a good memory and better photo albums. I spent my skinny years feeling as fat as Iām now, which is double. I did not commit suicide because my bestie took us to the sea instead of skiing. It was the best vaccation I ever had, and certainly one of the weirdest. As Iām still here Iām grateful for my life experience and that she, her son whom cord I cut (the father fainted during delivery) and some friends share is FAMILY. Chosen family. And Iām grateful to be part of it
Thus Iām grateful for friends and all chosen family Iām blessed in my life as a single child with no relatives and parents deceased
I donāt know what I did,but it was something so caring, loving and right that I have this wonderful people in my life. This differes me from my ex, as he seldom cared and lost many friends on his way, sad as it is even more when I took my good by shot and left for good. Iām grateful for fucked up beyond repair F.U.B.R.
As much as I miss the good times, the love, the togetherness, I donāt miss the the lack of love, the rejection, the chronical drinking, the lack of communication, the loneliness beside your loved one, the exhaustion, frustration, ignorance, the lack of communication ā¦ and I will never again allow anyone to call me a fat lazy sod. When I pay for everything, organize everything and also his fucking book-keeping for 10 years 
Yes, Iām fucking grateful this bullshit is over and Iām approaching the 1 year mark in 3 weeks. I donāt know what I loved the last years, I only know it was mostly an illusion as I never figured out why the fuck he married me. Besides the money.

Good gray grateful morning to you all! Grateful I slept most of the day, although the lack of productivity kills me inside. Mustāve needed it I guess. Grateful for a fun trip to the dog park, getting some chores done, signing up for a jewelry class with a friend. Grateful todayās to do list mostly includes discretionary items. Grateful to wake up and hour earlier than I thought I did which is sort of like sleeping in but means I can still get my groceries while everyone else is sleeping or at church. Grateful for a break in the rain so I can walk about a bit with the dogs. Grateful for another day sober.

Good morning. 
This forum has gifted me with so much, so many opportunities to learn about myself and others in an āas safe as one can be on the internetā environment. I am grateful for the opportunities it has offered me to support and grow with other addicts across the globe. What a beautiful gift, thank you @Robin for all of the hardwork I know you put into keeping this place running smoothly. Your patience and drive to get things done is admirable.
I am grateful to not make rash decisions anymore but to take time, letting ideas settle before I make a move. I am grateful that my choices today are made with a level head and not with emotions.
I am grateful that I am willing to try things that I am unsure about today and give them my best shot. I am also grateful to be humble enough to admit when things arent working out instead of trying to muscle them because I dont want to let go. I can admit where my strengths and weaknesses are today without feeling less than or greater than and I am grateful for that.
I am grateful for the last couple days of nice weather we have had and the color I have on my skin. A healthy glowā¦ I am grateful my glow starts on the inside today.
As I was doing a chakra meditation the other day something occured to me. The term yellow bellied was brought about in the 1700ās meaning cowardice, and our solar plexus chakra at our belly is yellow. The solar plexus chakra is where we find our courageā¦
Then I of course had to research more and learned that Christian faith claimed yellow as Judas Iscariotās hue. From this affiliation, in Christianity, yellow became the color of deceit and cowardice. I am grateful for scriptures.
I am grateful for my piping hot coffee in my ember mug. I am grateful for the chance to go to a gem show alone this morning.
I am grateful to be clean.

I am grateful today for God and for his ability to carry all of my burdens. From someone who normally has worries and anxiety and fear, I have been able to experience very little of these and instead bask in joy and genuine happiness and excitement for life. I cant remember the last time I truly felt excited about my future. A gift of God and of recovery.
I am grateful for having my basic needs being met. For no longer just having to survive, but actually thriving! My husband and I were actually chatting yesterday about getting a house in the future. Something that we would have never discussed in past circumstances.
Im grateful for the warm sun and the light breeze out there today. For the birds chirping and for my brief mindfullness walk that i had on my way to work this morning.
I am grateful for my new immersion blender lol im excited to try it out tmrw when i make a smoothie. Super excited about that 
I am grateful for my friends like all of u. Im grateful for ur recoveries and im grateful that we are all on this journey together
