Ditto - I’m very grateful for the poem, for introductions to new poets, and JOMO!
A timely poem. I returned last night from my week in the big city, in airports and downtown hotels and meetings. Grateful to realize how quiet a life I lead, and intentionally so, I also realize.
There was wine everywhere. I wasn’t tempted to drink, but I’m grateful I don’t have to fly so close to the sun that often.
I’m grateful I honoured my needs during the trip, now that I’ve accepted how this M is built, how important this is to my recovery. Made the most of connecting with colleagues during the day and declined all evening invitations. Not because of the wine, but so that I could fill my own cup with some solo time and a walk by the river. A take out picnic from the health food store. A coffee date and hearty visit with an old pal in the city. I’m grateful for all of these.
Had to laugh. With the rush hour traffic and security line up, I just made it to the gate yesterday. Took twice as long. M from the before times woulda been mighty pissed off.
I’m grateful I’m heading to the woods tomorrow. To fill my cup even more with birdsong galore.
I’m grateful for all of you.
I’m grateful for another day.

Today I am grateful for
20 Days of sobriety.
The speaker at the AA meeting.
My two walks.
The fox and skunk that crossed in front of me on my second walk.
The cat hunting for gophers that let me pet him/her.
My doggies.
My family.
My boyfriend and the shark he caught fishing.
Tea and coffee.
Chocolate.
My reserved friend who opened up and was vulnerable with me.
Having people in my life I can open up to and be vulnerable with as well.
Music.
Smiles and laughter.
TS superheros.

I am grateful for my coffee in a cornflakes bowl this morning. So glad to be waking up sober, head clear, thoughts straight, no regrets. I am grateful there is many people around, who know when they’ve had enough. I still wish, that could be me a little. Grateful I don’t even want to try.
I am grateful my friend who is getting married today also entrusted me with her youngest son and made me his Godmother. I feel truly blessed. The baptism will be happening right before the wedding. I am truly grateful to be part of such a celebration of life. Grateful you guys have my back throughout this.

Happy Saturday morning to all of you from sunny Wisconsin! It’s a beautiful cool morning here and I’m cozied up in my favorite chair on my amazing front porch.
I’m grateful to be sober today as I am every day.
I’m grateful for my beautiful and safe and loving home. It’s nothing fancy, but it is ours and we make a nice life here.
I’m grateful for a loving marriage that is now really a healthier and kind place due to our work and our recovery in sobriety.
I’m grateful for good physical health. I bike or swim or kayak nearly every day right now. I work in the house and in the yard. I am able to do most anything I need. I’m grateful to be healthy.
I’m grateful for my extended family, including my ex family. We are one month away from the wedding of my son. My son has multiple generations of blended families. We are fortunate to be able to put our hard histories aside to come together for this special occasion.
I’m grateful for my siblings who are supporting me in my anxiety about this and managing our mother and her unfiltered comments. 2 huge upsetting triggers for me involve comments that are judgemental about my husband and that somehow my contributions and plans for this wedding are wrong. Those have been her specialty this week and I guess I can expect them each week now. I’m grateful for my siblings helping me deal with this.
I’m grateful my brother will get his 60 day chip on Monday! Wooot!
I’m grateful for my summer break. I’ve been really enjoying my home and my time and the relaxed schedule. I’m practicing for retirement someday.
I’m grateful to read your posts and journeys. I’m grateful to be part of a wonderful community and see that I am not alone.
Ok, let’s go enjoy this day!

Good morning grateful friends,
I’m grateful for another day sober.
I’m grateful I managed some sleep last night.
I’m grateful it’s sunny and not too hot yet so headed out for a walk shortly.
I’m grateful it’s Saturday and I don’t really have much I need to do today.
I’m grateful for my cats. They are all the best.
I’m grateful for music. Eminem and Macklemore both have great recovery stories in their music.
I’m grateful for all of you.
Progress not perfection.

Good morning friends,
I’m grateful to be sitting on my porch swing watching the sun rise and catching up on the home thread. I’m grateful the coffees brewing, and I’ll have a cup soon. I’m grateful that I will get to see my parents today. I’m grateful I still have them, and I don’t hide from them anymore because I’m drunk or feeling guilty for my drinking. I’m grateful I have made some life plans- some financial, some personal, some fun gardening plans. It feels like progress when I take steps to move these plans forward. I’m grateful I can completely understand what @I.cant.We.can means about how we become part of each others lives, and how things in our day to day lives make us think of each other. It’s pretty cool really😊. I’m grateful for all of you❤️

I’m grateful it didn’t hurt to wake up today
I’m grateful finally NO NIGHT SWEATS!!
I’m grateful for day 12
I’m grateful the guilt is a 8/10 instead of that incessant 10/10
I’m grateful I’ve journaled honestly because I feel some of the poison leaving my body.
I’m grateful for my daughter’s morning breathe on me right now and sporadic kicks I used to hate because I was constantly running on fumes
I’m grateful my cousin who is also an alcoholic but 5 years in recovery wants to go to meetings together once a week and wants to start beading. I missed her so much but my alcoholism and her sobriety could never meet in the middle until now 
I’m grateful for this community for hearing all my emotions without judgment and offering absolutely helpful sound advice.

@bootz thank you for the poem – it’s perfect and will be printed out so I can remember these life lessons needed for me right now.
@soberbilly I do hope that after receiving the cease and desist that the mom can back off. Well done on be preventative with the restraining order – I think this is a great idea for Leslee’s own protection. Tight like “tourniquet” – love It- grateful that she has you in her corner.
@pandita have a wonderful time at the wedding! Grateful that you are celebrating life sober and with a healthy attitude.
@rainy7 Oh so lovely to hear that you are starting to see some of the positive sides of sobriety. Love this for you – it only gets easier and better – hang in there. Also how beautiful that you and your cousin will be able to reform your bond over sobriety!
@pattycake Well done on your double digits my friend! Love the freedom – embrace it openly
Happy Sober Saturday to all you beautiful souls
I am so grateful for my morning breakfast companion – the squirrel showed up like clockwork when I sat at the kitchen table – must have some sort of signal 
Even in this heat, he will go for the nuts but not the water.
I am so grateful to have re-discovered a show that I used to watch as a child but had long forgotten (it only aired in the states for it’s three seasons). With very little to go on my brother was able to find it and I was surprised to find them on YOUTUBE. Grateful for the internet. Here is the theme song if anyone is interested - i couldn’t believe i remembered all the words The Mysterious Cities of Gold
I am so grateful for waking up hungry (haven’t had an appetite in some time (usually have to force myself to eat so that i can keep to a schedule per my doctor) - went back to sleep as i didn’t have the energy but finally woke up and had lovely GF pancakes with very strong hot coffee.
I am so grateful for my supportive family. Grateful for my brother who made me a delicious veggie stir fry with crisp tofu last night. Grateful for my mother who dropped in this morning to check in on me (yesterday was hard physically). Grateful for my sister who calls me daily now since to make sure i don’t slip into a dark place. I am so grateful for all the love i’m surrounded with.
I am so grateful for me being able to meditate / pray internally without much effort for the days that i have zero energy - grateful that i can still rely on this practice to lift me up and keep me grounded.
I am so grateful that I know my HP is by my side. Grateful that i am able to do gratitude’s and positive affirmations to keep myself in a positive state of mind.
Grateful for laughter and childhood innocence to keep me light hearted
I am so grateful for my lovely plants and herbs that are starting to grow so beautifully - Love seeing all the new growth!
So the coffee didn’t do much and i am feeling more off than when i woke up so i’m grateful to be able to crawl back into bed - hoping to regain some energy and work on the rest when i wake…
Iam so grateful for you all - this community (all of YOU) is AMAZING!
Sending much love

I have used a gratitude journal app called presently. I’m not perfect but I start at least five days of the week with this. It’s been a huge part of being a generally positive person in recovery.

I’m grateful we got Alice’s subcutaneous fluids in her easily just now and she came right over to me after for a thank you purr fest.
I’m grateful when I’m struggling I know I need to change things up a bit. I’m grateful Mavy and Daisy woke me just before 6. I’m grateful I got to feed everyone and coffee myself.
I’m grateful I went back to basics and did a Mantra meditation chant thingy during coffee. Om Mani Padme Hum. I’m grateful I listen to the instructions Nadav gave me before the chant; to keep an open mind like it’s the first time doing it.
I’m grateful the mantra has kept me in the present for the last 3 and a half hours. Even when my mind wonders off into the future of planning I am able to chant and bring myself back to the now.
I’m grateful for my gratitude list.
I’m grateful I went to a new, to me, meeting last night. I’m grateful, not only did I recognize some familiar faces. I recognize ALL the familiar faces. I’m grateful I got 5 meetings a week to choose from now. I’m grateful to try and get through today without a meeting.
I’m grateful we got Minnie’s ashes yesterday and they are in a beautiful rosewood box. I’m grateful I made room on the shelf for her with Max. And too many other loves 
Max and Min made a great team a decade or so ago. I’m grateful I got to cherish the memories of so many of my pets. I’m grateful I’m sober AF.
I’m grateful for today.
Right now.
And if I can stay that way I’ll be ok.
I’m grateful for my recoveries and yours.
I’m grateful I’m going to be all right. I’m grateful that’s what I do.

Today I’m grateful I went to the farmers market. I’m grateful I helped a friend who is down with a hurting back. I’m grateful I did some minor chores. I’m constantly tired and exhausted. I’m grateful I slept most of the afternoon. Lot’s of emotions today, triggered from dreams. Tomorrow is a new day. I’m grateful my house is quite messy atm and I do what I can every day. The night is forecasted to be cool so I’m grateful to air the house. And get a better sleep hopefully.
