Good afternoon,
Haven’t been here in a couple of days
I have so many things to be grateful for but today as I did my run my heart was full with immense gratitude for my legs. Just to see then striving, caring me towards the end when I felt like I just wanted to finish. We sometimes forget to be grateful for the small things we take for granted. My son’s Dad is an emputee and I know in my heart he would give anything to have his leg back. So today I want to be extremely grateful for my legs .
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday
Silly me, I let stress and worry steal my gratitude for almost a week until today I remembered that sometimes I have to remind myself that I and I alone am the only one capable of stealing it. I and I alone am the only one to get myself back on track.
I’m grateful to have gotten through two rounds of Covid running through our house and me eluding it. I’m grateful my family has recovered fully.
I’m grateful for the afternoon rain that replenishes the earth.
I’m grateful for another day clean.
I’m grateful that I have the capability to turn myself around and not feel shame for being human.
I’m grateful to be aware (eventually lol) of how I am damaging myself and have the knowledge that I don’t have to.
I’m grateful for my sweet six month old great granddaughter and her beautiful smile.
I’m grateful to sit outside on my bucket on the porch and feel the wind blow and watch the clouds swirl in a dance.
I’m beyond grateful for everyone in recovery who teaches me daily about life, helping others and myself.
I’m grateful to be grateful again.
Today I am grateful for my children, my daughter turns 16 today and I couldn’t be prouder.
I am grateful that I can be a sober mother to her on her special day, and that I’m sure means more than any thing else I could give her.
Have a good day everyone 🛼
I love this!
I’m grateful for hearing from my sweet friend, that she immediately makes me feel grateful for her and TS.
I’m grateful I love my new job.
I’m grateful that kindness fills my days.
I’m grateful that I give myself and others love freely.
I’m grateful that balance, peace, and happiness are such large parts of my life now.
I’m grateful that even when I do feel sad or upset I allow it and listen. It’s usually trying to teach me something.
I’m grateful for the beautiful sunrises and sunsets I’ve been catching every day.
I’m grateful for 285 days of sobriety
I am grateful every morning I don’t wake-up sick. Im grateful to be quiet and still and be in the moments. So much is there when I see the space between. I’m grateful for everyone on this journey with me. I’m grateful for each and everyday I am present and available to learn. I’m also so very grateful for friends and family who are in my life and for my cat Inky who makes me smile all the time..
Good evening friends
Today was a good day but it had its challenges.
I’m grateful my health is returning after a long 10 months at home thanks to vaccine that all but ruined my life. I am able to walk again without a walker, I no longer need a shower chair or assistant getting from one room to another, im not stuck on the floor because the world was spinning and the safest place in the house was the lowest place I could get. I no longer need a shower chair. I am able to not only leave my bedroom, I am not only able to leave the house again but I am able to drive again. Today I even overcame riding in the backseat of a car and was able to be in the car for longer than 15 minutes! I am eternally grateful for my neurologist and physical therapist for working with me so diligently to help me basically retrain my brain so that I am able to return to functioning like a normal human being with no handicaps again! I did struggle some today with the long car ride and had some slight vertigo but nothing and I mean nothing like it has been the last 10 months.
I am grateful for my higher power being with me today as I was at a bar for a celebration of life for one of my husband’s friends. I did not know him but was there with my family and to support my husband. Everyone was either drinking or getting high, except my family. It became overwhelming at one point and instead of drinking or gettin high I chose to eat not 1 not 2 but 3 slices of cake! I’m paying for that now with a sour stomach but I’m newly sober and will still be grateful the cake was there lol
I’m grateful for the 7pm meeting I was able to attend tonight.
I’m grateful to learn someone is working on starting an a.c.a. meeting in our area.
I’m grateful for so many things but I’ve gone on long enough so I will simply end this and wish everyone a wonderful evening.
Noice.
Congrats on your 285 Callie.
And a beautiful sunrise pic. Or sunset.
I wanted to thank you for turning me on to The Bear. It took me a couple of episodes but I think I’m hooked now. Crisis management seemed to be my game. I really love Ayo Edebiri, Sydney. I never heard of her. Or any of those actors.
I’m grateful for your share.
Morning,
I was feeling pretty sorry for myself this morning. I read through the gratitudes before posting and am so glad I did. They changed my whole perspective.
I’m grateful to have these feelings, it’s ok to feel like this, it’s normal to have a spectrum of feelings. Thank you Jackstraw for your photo.
@Shaunda, I almost teared up reading your post, sat here in the dining room having breakfast on my own. Thank you for your honesty, I needed to read that.
@Callie99, you always write so beautifully, I always take so much from your posts, thank you.
I’m grateful to realise how very different my partner and I are. I need to change my expectations and not expect him to enjoy everything I do. I need another friend to do those things with.
I’m grateful for this time alone to think, I needed it.
I’m grateful for not drinking yesterday or wanting to.
Have a great day everyone
Tonight I am grateful for family, chosen and given. I am thankful for encouraging words and love shared with me from both.
I am grateful for a small sense of closure, and beginning to mend a breaking heart.
I’m grateful for positive shame and the choice to grow.
I’m grateful to God for my 920 days of freedom.
I’m grateful I have a loving God.
I’m grateful for 919 hangover free mornings.
I’m grateful for all the support from so many different people on here. Especially You!
I’m grateful to learn that dwelling on gratitude is actually fun.
I’m grateful for the serenity prayer as I pulled it out and put it on first thing this morning.
I’m grateful Benson ate this morning.
I’m grateful I’m thoughtful and practical even when it might be silly. I was wondering if the kids had enough sheets for the crib for my baby G on the way. They said they have 2. I grateful for Amazon, now they’ll have at least a half dozen by Monday. I’m gratefully excited the doc said baby G could be coming early. Due date is less than 2 weeks away. . I’m grateful we can afford to spoil the kids and the grand baby if they need something.
I’m grateful for all my blessings. Especially this France trip. But God I want to get it over with . It might sound ungrateful but this was not the plan. I’m grateful God is probably having a good belly laugh at my plans. I’m grateful to feel all this and looks like I’ll be forced to take it one day at a time. Is there any other way? I’m grateful there isn’t.
I’m grateful my problems or my issues might seem small. But they are my problems and my issues and I still have to deal with them without a drink. Because then I have at least one less problem or issue.
Again. I’m grateful for all the support around here.
I’m grateful for another One Day to go out and Slay it
I’m grateful I’ve heard and just read.
Recovery is a process.
Not an event.
Oh my gosh the excitement!!! I hope all goes smooth and easy, and congratulations!
I just get to sit here and wait
This is bullshit.
Thanks
And of course cry with excitement.
There’s a good chance I’ll keep y’all posted.
Good morning all,
I’m grateful for you guys, and that I feel safe here. I’m grateful letting out my feelings yesterday here helped. I’m grateful that I have tools in my sobriety toolbox, and although drinking wasn’t going to happen, I used a bunch of them yesterday because I felt so off. I’m grateful I feel better today- normal, more grounded. I’m grateful to have seen what could have become an issue on the foodies thread handled with grace. Thanks for that. I’m grateful I got some macramé plant hangers and I’m so excited to hang some of my plants today😊. I’m grateful I refilled the hummingbird feeder so they will stop flying up to the big window to chastise me for letting it run empty!
Everyone have a wonderful day
Oh wow, I just saw this. Hope all goes well
I’m grateful I’ve been 30 days sober!! I’m grateful that I picked up a new hobby of diamond painting, it hurts my hand but leaves my liver alone. I’m grateful to Stella for telling me about this, I’ve never heard of it.
I’m grateful for Max patiently waiting to go outside in the morning. He does this low hum when he really has to poop. It’s not a growl, it’s like someone clearing their throat but stretched out. If that made sense. I’m grateful for Riley and all her love & funny quirks.
I’m grateful for God giving me the strength to finally stop drinking. I’m grateful I’ve found a ton of new friends on this app that are helping me as well as walking this journey alongside me. I wish I could tag all of you, but I’m only allowed 10 and I wouldn’t want to forget someone. God bless and enjoy your day wherever you are in the world!
