I lost a son too. June 6th is my rough day. I thought of him and honored his memory. I promised to honor him by not drinking. It eased the pain a little.
I also used to drink excessively around the time. It never helped.
I’m glad your here!

Sitting here on my hotel bed amped up beyond belief. I’m aching and can hardly walk from all the walking and stairs I did today. Gonna be stiff as hell in the morning but right now I’m so full of gratitude that I can barely breathe. There is nothing as powerful as the energy of several thousand people in a room clapping and chanting “keep coming back” as folk stand up in recovery ranging from 48 years to 1 day. So grateful I was able to be a part of that tonight. I really needed this fresh infusion of recovery, companionship and gratitude. Going to rest my aching back and hips, get some sleep and hit the closing meeting in the morning. Gratitude is like a warm blanket covering me. Love you guys!

I’m grateful I completed Day 22 which surpassed my 1st attempt.
I’m grateful for all of you. We’re all ages, have different backgrounds, come from different countries. This community shows me what I’ve always wanted to believe. That most people in the world are genuine and kind. We’re coming together to share a common goal, supporting and helping one another along the way. 
I’m grateful to God for the hope and faith he gives me. I’m grateful for what I do have in my life. I’m grateful I’m learning patience in this journey. I’m grateful for Max and Riley who keep me from being lonely. And I’m grateful I’m not following @Dazercat gratitude list tonight, otherwise I’m trying to come up with anything to add to make mine look longer. 
God bless

Thank you I appreciate it 
That’s very sweet of you.
Congratulations on big Two Two.
I’ve mentioned it before long time ago. I got a good friend 20 + sober, meditation therapist. He use vist and help out at sober living homes. He still does gratitude every single day. I wanted what he’s got so bad. And now I’ve just trained my brain. And if you hadn’t noticed 
I really get into it. It’s like a gratitude meditation.
I’m grateful you’re here.

Morning,
Thanks to @maxwell for mentioning kindness, it reminded me about a guy I saw at a petrol station who went over to help an elderly couple who were struggling blowing up their tyres. I made me think that most people are kind and do help others.
I’m grateful that I am independent and don’t need reassurance for pretty much everything. I’m thankful my parents brought me up this way and I’ve tried to do the same with my kids.
I’m grateful for patience and letting things go that aren’t important, I didn’t always do this.
I’m grateful for being here, thanks everyone

I’m so grateful I made a beautiful breakfast for my friends this morning. I’d been taking photos of my awesome breakfast bowls and making them jealous and they finally got to taste them today. 10/10 
They loved then
I’m learning more about the key to relationships is sharing, giving, encouraging…instead of extracting, needing, wanting.

Today I’m grateful for my life. The wonderfully supportive people who have entered it, the tools and knowledge I’ve gained. Grateful for the serenity prayer. Steps. My sponsor. Meetings. Grateful my children are returning to my life, which in turn brings grandchildren love. Grateful to be getting on top of health issues. New beanies for the colder weather. A warm place to sleep

Today I am greatful to still be safe from physical harm, to have eaten dinner with my family, for a relatively quiet place to live, for not dying in a car accident driving home, for my air conditioner, and the relatively high likelihood I’ll sleep well tonight after a long day.

I’m grateful to be up bright and early, not hungover or still drunk from the night before.
I’m grateful to be going fishing with a friend of mine who I have inspired to get clean.
I fished with him a long time ago. We always had fun! We have been having fun! I get to film wide open and have gotten the most amazing underwater footage! I am grateful!
I’m grateful to be a positive influence. I’ve spent too much of my life being a negative influence.
I’m grateful to feel content sober!
It’s going to be an awesome day!

I’m totally fine, , thanks! There was no accident, I just think that whenever I drive there is a chance of a serious accident. So I feel truly relieved when I get home safely. I’ve seen so many accidents and so many people disappear so quickly without warning or reason that I don’t take a single day of life for granted anymore. Even when the day is painful and unbearable if I can make it to bed and wake up (especially when I pray I won’t) I feel fortunate

Good morning wonderful people
Today I am grateful for the smallest of things. Like getting a ton of yummy smelling candles on sale, it calms me when my home smells nice.
I’m grateful for a freshly mowed yard and that my husband had energy to help me yesterday as we also mow our neighbors yard. She is a lovely English lady who is 84 years old and gives me English tea as a thank you. Shes a precious neighbor and I do so enjoy her company.
I’m grateful for my husband, im changing on him through recovery and he is doing his best to be understanding. Its sometimes rough as he is still a daily drinker. Al anon helps me keep myself in check with that.
I’m grateful for the bit of rain we got last night as I ran out of time watering the yard lol
I hope everyone of you have a wonderful day out there today.

Good morning all,
I’m grateful for the cloudy sky the last couple days. I’m grateful for my family, and the stage of life we are in. It’s kinda cool to see the kids becoming more independent, making their own decisions, but still able to be close to me. I’m grateful that I know there’s probably already a thread created that will help me when they start leaving the nest. I’m grateful that I feel balanced, and happy right now. I’m grateful that I’m willing to work to try to feel that way most of the time, even though I get tired of working on myself sometimes. I’m grateful for my coffee this morning, and for the nail polish color that I found and have been loving!
Everyone have a wonderful day
