I am greatful:-

For remaining sober when I felt so unstable mentally over the last few months.
For having the mindset to start being accountable again
For wanting to recognise things I am grateful for
For delving further into my own spirituality and gaining calmness in my mind
For my son who just finished his last exam for his degree
For being true to myself, leaving a job I hate but not walking out, handing my notice in just like a grown up does! For taking a temp job whilst I look for a homeless/support work
For my van and better weather, at my low points driving to a beach has been my solace.
For the gym
For here :green_heart::orange_heart:

Good morning all,
I’m grateful to be up early with the sun shining. I’m grateful for the gorgeous Hibiscus flowers I can see out of my window. I’m grateful that I finally made up my mind to cut back at work- just one day a week off. I’m grateful I know it will help me immensely, I’m unsure why it feels like such a big deal to me. Maybe it feels like admitting that I can’t do it- it’s to much for me. I was always in robot mode before- mostly because I had to work as much as possible because we needed the money, but also because of some twisted sense of pride I got from it. “Look how much I can do”- I’m grateful I don’t have to anymore.
I’m grateful to hear my big dog Luke’s heavy breathing as he naps. My dogs are such sweethearts- weird, but real sweethearts. I’m grateful my parents get to visit my younger brother in Oregon. I’m grateful for my family.
Everyone have a wonderful day :heart:

G’morning y’all :sunny::sunflower::yellow_heart:

Gratitude has become my morning song. Whether I speak it, write it, or type it out here, I’m grateful for this practice that puts life into perspective for me.

I’m grateful for Brian’s 1,000 days. @I.cant.We.can Huge congratulations on all that sobriety has brought to you and in turn, has brought to us. I’m grateful for your presence here. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m grateful for feeling more calm this morning. My husband set me off yesterday, and although I tried really hard, it was like I was in recovery mode the entire day. He was on a roll. :confounded: I’m grateful I went to bed early, and last night’s meditation brought me peaceful sleep. Forgiveness always helps, too.

I’m grateful my daughter is flying up here in a couple weeks. It’s good for me to have something to look forward to. She brings me hope. She speaks about her sobriety journey with me and I know it’s all gonna be alright. I’m grateful for her love.

I’m grateful for y’all. :heart:

I’m grateful to see Marie popping in.
I’m grateful for another sober morning.
I’m grateful for the nice day yesterday with no one in my house.
I’m grateful I got the windows cleaners coming today. The windows are so filthy. My wife is tired of people in the house and didn’t want me to schedule anymore people to come over. But I did this for me. She might be a little pissed off, but she’ll just have to get over it. I’m tired of people in the house too.
I’m grateful we got all our chores done in case the window cleaners show up at 8 and now we relax. They probably won’t show up til ten.
I’m grateful we got Alice’s subcutaneous fluids in early today. I’m grateful she is doing so well.
I’m grateful for music.
I’m grateful for humor.
I’m grateful for the George Carlin special on HBO. It brings back such wonderful memories.
I’m grateful Ricky Gervais has a new special coming out on Netflix before the months end.
I’m grateful for a little longer loop I found yesterday to do my walk and it didn’t hurt doing a 50 minute walk instead of a 30 minute walk. I’m grateful I have choices on where to walk.
I’m grateful I finally broke out my Cannon camera to try and take some better pics. I’m grateful I don’t know what the hell I’m doing and I’ll try and figure it out.
I’m grateful for my view each morning and all day around here. It will be sad when it’s taken for granted.
I’m grateful for all the barking going on especially Minnie. It’s nice to see her perked up.
I’m grateful for TS and especially the G-Dudes.
I’m grateful gratitude keeps me sober.

Gratitude is not something idyllic that comes when all good things are lined up to be counted. Gratitude is there all the time waiting to be focused on.

So much to be greatful for

Im greatful to everyone on this forum, new and old, who contribute and are active in the discovery of recovery.

Im greatful my will power is growing with each day and im feeling more comfortable talking about it with my family and friends, before i was worried about sharing because i didnt want to disappoint. But now that im committed im not so scared.

Im greatful i woke up hangover free and full of energy.

Im greatful i wasnt hungover and got to see my 4yo nephews soccer game. Im greatful he had the biggest cheering section there.

Im greatful im open to introspection and growth through this sober journey.

Today ive decided im not going to drink. Have a wonderful day ts friends!

Today I’m most grateful to feel reconnected with my husband and to have quality time together. It felt like going through the motions for a bit but over the past week or so we got our mojo back. I’m grateful our love is based on friendship first and we can talk about anything. I’m grateful he shared with me that when I was drinking I would just shut him down and didn’t want to talk. I’m glad those days are long behind us.

I’m grateful to God. I’m grateful for recovery. I’m grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful for all the likes, messages and support after my “milestone” post, it is very much appreciated, you all matter. I’m grateful to be somewhat coming out of the funk I have been in due to covid, and the lots and lots of change to come, moving to a new place in a differnt town and leaving my job . I’m grateful for the experience of getting through hard times and staying clean and sober before, as it helps the next time/now. I’m grateful for a short work day followed by a nice walk home. I’m grateful that I got to watch some of the Nba and Nhl playoffs last night, and probabaly more tonight. I’m grateful the central air conditioning was on when I got home.

Today I’m grateful for the simple things. I’m grateful for my decision-making and thinking things through. I’m grateful that I feel healthy for the most part. I’m grateful for the nap that I took and when I woke up I was looking at my nightstand and there was two unopened cups of Cheerios and a monster, and a fairly clean room. I’m grateful for that because I was thinking about what it would look like in the past and what the nightstand would be. I’m grateful to not feel sick right now or be scheming or finding ways to get alcohol or being physically sick in the morning Shaking like a zombie and not able to handle every day things. Also lately I have been extremely grateful for nature and I have been noticing a lot more things I never paid attention to. I’m grateful to be going home tomorrow. I’m grateful that I’m starting to see some light. I’m grateful that it feels like some of the hard work is paying off. I’m grateful for this community
