I’m grateful for the chat with our fasting guide in the morning. We’ve known each other for almost 20 years now. She is a wise soul and we like each other very much. I’m grateful there are wonderful people in my life
I’m grateful that I didn’t wake up feeling utterly exhausted even though I got a full night sleep. I still woke up feeling tired and not refreshed, but not to the extent that it’s been, so I feel like I am finally beginning to recover from the long sleep deprivation.
@erntedank I’m happy to hear you have pampered yourself with a pedicure! Way to dote on that special person in your life! (You. You are the special person. ) @Its_me_Stella It is a wonderful thing to see how much healthy understanding you have gained in your life, using each for the growth of your soul’s journey. @Twizzlers Recognizing and understanding what you’re feeling, why you’re feeling, and how your feelings affect you in reality is such an important thing, and a point that many people have yet to reach. We can’t change something we don’t know about or truly understand. Hang in there.

So sorry you and they are going through this. My partner has had a few scares and it’s always hard. I’m sure your friends are grateful that you can be there to support them!
I’m grateful for each day I’ve put into slowly decluttering my home. A lot has fallen to the wayside in the last decade as one issue after another took my attention, left me without motivation, or simply left me too ill or tired to keep up on things. We don’t have a large home, and for the most part things are organized, but there are closets, corners, and cubbies that have fallen into more disarray than I would like. I’m grateful I’ve been able to just let go of things–whether to the trash, to friends/family, or to a donation center.
@TrustyBird This is so true. My best wishes for your friends.

I am so grateful for my family and their support.
I am so grateful for my neighbors - the front door of my house was wide open and they called me to let me know as they did not see any cars in driveway. My new tenant moved the move in day to today and it seems that the realtor did not shut the door properly when he showed her the house the other day. Yesterday was a windy day and it must have blown the door open.
I am so grateful for my love of water. Grateful that lately i have been so damn thirsty and can’t believe how much water my body is asking for. Grateful to be adding some Himalayan salt to make sure i don’t deplete all electrolytes.
I am so grateful that i chatted with my best friend for over an hour last night. Only person that i have know for over 3 decades - we haven’t seen each other in over 3 years and i am thrilled that she is planning to come see me this January.
I am so grateful for some energy today to get my butt moving to clean up the house.
I am so grateful my mental state - grateful for my meditation / prayer practices. Grateful for my serenity and peace of mind. So grateful for HOPE.

Just a short stop by to say I’m grateful for silence, meditation, prayer, my reliable car, my flexibility, a hot shower and sleep.

I’m grateful for the calming sound of rain and the church bells ringing.
I’m so grateful for this wonderful week

Grateful for a ton! I know I have been awol for a bit but I’m still going strong at 343 days today! Wanted to pop in and let everyone know I’m doing alright but have been extremely busy with work and coaching baseball. Fall season just finished up so I am getting my first break in about 10 months from doing anything baseball related!
My coworker I used to drink with a lot found out today he’s possibly in trouble for an incident that happened the day before thanksgiving. Long story short I took the day off that day but met him for breakfast. He was already three giant drinks in when I left. I later found out he spent the whole day drinking there and he had not taken the day off. Eventually our other coworker he was with called some folks to get him home and a supervisor showed up and saw him falling down drunk.
As I sat and heard that he’s now possibly going to be in trouble I couldn’t help but feel grateful I made the choice to change. Almost a year ago now I was in the same bar with that guy the last time I drank and almost threw my life away.
I hope everyone is staying connected and strong through the holidays, so much to be grateful for in sobriety even though it may not always feel that way, take it one day at a time and know you are loved and welcome here
