Evening gratitude.
Today Iām grateful for a full day at home. Iām grateful for my office @ home where I can attend interesting zoom workshops. Iām grateful for interesting input and good discussions.
Iām grateful for leftovers, I was too exhausted to cook.
Iām grateful I walked a round on the farm and saw my exās car missing. Iām grateful I called him to ask if he fetched it. He fetched it yesterday evening. Iām grateful I was not at home, I feel very unstable whithout preparing to meet him. Maybe heāll come over tomorrow, maybe we can talk then. Whatever the universe has scheduled, it will happen. Iām grateful he finally got his driver license back (already 2 weeks ago) after 1,5 years. Iām grateful I did not help out besides the first month. Iām grateful I did not share this situation with him. Iām grateful my side of the street is clean.
Iām grateful I called a friend and vented after the call with my ex. I was upset with myself. The codependent monster threw a fit and I honestly thought āI could skip part 2 of the workshop to talk with himā
No honey, we donāt do this anymore. We do what feeds our heart, soul and brain. If a talk happens, it happens in a spot which is fine for both. Skipping a workshop you really enjoy participating in is NOT fine for you. No need to beat yourself up, you have very old patterns to unlearn. Iām grateful I get another chance to unlearn this unhealthy pattern and replace it with equanimity, kindness and boundaries
Fuck, this shit is exhausting. Iām grateful the new book is a perfect read for everything Iām dealing with atm. And Iām grateful yesterdayās nightmare and the therapy session make sense today after this call and my feelings after. I can do better. Let it begin with me. ODAAT
Iām grateful that the weather has decided to stop being āyou can fry an egg on the sidewalkā and is now āhere is your one week of decent weather before hell freezes overā.

This amazing community
Grateful granny opened her eyes and asked why breakfast wasnāt there yet . I think sheās indestructible. Grateful @JazzyS was sending good vibes, thank you . Grateful for leisure time. Grateful my phone died half way through my visit at the Alhambra. It lifted the heavy weight off my shoulders to have to take the perfect memorable picture. I could just be there and enjoy the beauty of it all. Grateful for this kind of beauty. Grateful I get to see it. Grateful I have the means to make it happen. Grateful for water and shade in the heat. Grateful all is well today and I know all of it is a gift.
Iām grateful I have an appointment to get a haicut today. I had to cancel my last one when my heath issues got in the way of my vanity. It might seem a small thing, but Iām a Leo, and having an untamed mane can really affect my base mood. I donāt need to look fabulous, just not homeless
Wooohooo, I am grateful to be a witness. Sometimes the spiritual awakenings of others remind me of breakthroughs. Its like I can see and feel the energy building up inside. I am grateful that when we stop holding on, and we let go, all of that pressure gets released. Damn that feels good and its so amazing to see. All of that negative energy suddenly turns positive and it just runs wild as the universe steers it all in the right direction. I am grateful that when we let go, the universe, God, source, creator, spiritā¦( whatever you call it) has us.
I am grateful to have some time this morning to work. I am grateful for my medication and I am grateful that I slept pretty good.
Iām grateful that you are feeling better and are able to get your haircut today. Not vain at all. I completely understand this feeling and feeling groomed and fresh brings in inner peace.
Have a beautiful day love
Thank you I am definitely vain! The last couple of years have been difficult (just when I thought it couldnāt get worse ) and there have been days when I could barely roll over in bed without help (which has been a steep drop from the days not that long ago that Iād spend working out), and so all the little things I do to care for myself have become infinitely important for my emotional health.
But to give context, we had a big earthquake a few years ago and while the first thing I did was check to make sure the water in the taps still worked, the second was to make sure my hair was at least presentable in case we needed to vacate. Iām grateful I have the ability to laugh at myself!
Oh lovely friendā¦I am so sorry to hear of your health struggles. I do hope that those are in the past and that you are fully healed
Enjoy the hell out of whatever self pampering you can manage to do. Like you mentioned - this is important for your emotional health. I feel like we can conquer anything as long as we are emotionally and spiritually strong. Much love to you
Today Iām grateful for an overwhelming wonderful day. Iām so tired I could fall asleep typing but I want to say I AM GRATEFUL. Let go and let God. Let it begin with me. ODAAT. Let the universe decide what it is serving you. Iām grateful I was openhearted, Iām grateful I try again, Iām grateful for meditation, Iām grateful for serenity, Iām fucking grateful for all the sayings Iāve been reading here for over 3 years and they help, they stick, practice and babysteps pay off. Maybe more details to come. Iām grateful Iām home and fall into bed. Amen
@Dazercat I had no idea this could happen!! I must be more careful too from now on.
I really admire how you had just this little tiny sip, by accident and you had the self control to not have any more!
Not only that but (hopefully) you are not dwelling on that incident for too long which actually allows you to continue being sober (stress can definitely push as back to our addictions).
I hope you are very proud of youself because I am
Iām grateful Iām here and still soberā¦78 days now.
Iām grateful for a safe house and food to eat.
Grateful for my family, including my fur family.
My brain hasnāt got the memo that we should be happy now, and my depression is giving me a rough ride.
Grateful for access to a doctor and the hope maybe a medication tweak will do some good.
I think everyone in my house is probably grateful I forced myself into the shower today
Grateful I know this too will pass.
AFAF ODAAT
Unfortunately not, but I appreciate your kind words. But hey! What doesnāt make you stronger eventually kills you. I am always grateful for this forum. It is the only social media I take part in, and I think I can say itās the only āsocial mediaā I feel like it is worth my time and effort to take part in (even though Iāve been a recluse shut in the past year or so).
