Oh fantastic!! Congratulations @Twizzlers !!! 300 days is epic!!! I know how hard you have worked on your journey and I am so proud of you. 
sorry Iām a little late to the party, got loads of stressful stuff on at the moment and Iām just trying to keep putting one foot in front of the other a step at a time. One things for sure, drinking would not make all of the things weāre dealing with any easier. Iām so glad I stopped when I did, I bet you are too? Great work my sober friend! Letās keep on going together

I am grateful for meditation. Itās really incredible how far I have come with meditation in such a short time. I am no master by any means but I am a far cry away from the woman who threw logs around the back 40 as meditation in the begining of my recovery. I am grateful that I never gave up and that I learned the principles of humility, compassion and patience. Itās not a competition, it doesnāt have to look like anyone elseās and it will never be āperfectā. I am grateful for my journey inward through therapy, stepwork, yoga, meditation, shadow work, and writing. Every little thing I do allows myself to feel safer, get more curious and shine brighter.
I am grateful to have read about spiritual materialism and how fine the line can be between self responsibility and narcissism. I have to sayā¦ one would probably want to file me under spiritual materialist after they saw the plethora of books I have read, am reading and plan to read on spirituality, different religions, scientific theories etc. I have an unquenchable thirstā¦ its happened to me before. 
This morning I woke up at 4 and started to get caught up in thoughts. Fortunately I have some wisdom in me and she led me towards a meditation. I am grateful for that meditation; I cried, no I more than cried I sobbed. I shared at my homegroup last night how I have been finding myself in silent tears as memories come into my mind. I am not sad, itās hard to explain. The only way I can describe it is that I finally feel safe enough to cry, itās not from pain though, maybe itās from relief. Relief that I know I am slowly letting go. I am grateful that I feel lighter today and that I was able to catch the first sunrise in a couple of months. Unfortunately there are a lot of 
and itās pretty smoky. I am grateful I donāt live on the mainland anymore and I pray for everyoneās safety.

I can really relate to this, I have shared before that I notice a running dialouge of gratitude going on in the background of my mind. What a difference gratitude has made in my life. Thanks for your share.

Good morning 
Iām grateful for quiet mornings for my studies, readings and meditation
Iām grateful for a great first day at work yesterday.
Iām grateful that even though they scheduled me for this weekend I can realize it was a mistake since I already told them I was unavailable due to a class. A simple reminder is all that is needed, not an over reactive response.
Iām grateful that I dont have to be an emotionally charged over reactive person all the time any more. That I can be a rational person like a normie.
Iām grateful to be back in society and being a contributing member of my family. Ive never in my adult life gone this long without working. It really messed with me.
Iām grateful that I can pause, breath and ask for my higher powers guidance in stressful situations.
Iām grateful I dont have to walk through this day full of self pity and selfish motives.
Iām grateful for all of you

I am grateful to wake up without having to think about getting well.
Im grateful that although my heart hurts, my mind is not thinking about which substance will numb it.
Iām grateful to have the ability to sit and think about the part I have played in a somewhat dysfunctional relationship and what I can possibly do to make it better. Iām grateful for yet another learning day on the horizon where I can stop and consciously pass it over to God, becauss I can not fix this, can not do it with my āknowledgeā.
Most grateful for the moment of clarity it brings me to pause and write this out.
Hereās to day 134. Woke up clean and sober and sure as shit plan to go to bed tonight clean and sober.

Iām grateful to God please help me be my best clean and sober self while following your will, just for today. Iām grateful for my recovery full of challenges and blessings. Iām grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. Iām grateful for daily readings, prayers and gratitude. Iām grateful I donāt have to get any of this right so fuck off self judgemnet, pity and perfectionism, I am trying to live on lifes terms and it isnāt always easy but its better than waking up not knowing where I am or where my next meal is coming from. Iām grateful for music and creativity. Iām grateful I am in pain, physical and emotional, it gives me something to focus and work on and through, knowing I have got through this and worse before and after thatās where the healing, growth and good days have followed.,. Praying they will again. I am grateful to God please give me strength, remove these defects, help me find peace, Amen.
God bless you all.

p.s. You rock. Ya you!!

Good Morning TS Family: 
Iām grateful Iām on Day 2. Iām grateful when I woke up sore, I know it had nothing to do with not drinking. Iām grateful itās Friday. Iām grateful Iāve picked up my weekly groceries this morning. I have a local store that has drive up and go, so I get all the sale prices, same as shopping myself, but they shop for me. Iām grateful for my ankle brace this morning.
Iām grateful for my home and itās mine. I do live alone, but unlike @Fury Iāve never thought of taking a dump on my coffee table 
(itās funny because a lot of people wonāt know what thread that was from). And Iām grateful to Chris for watching Stranger Things, Iām on season 4.
Iām grateful Iām back and will not beat myself up if I fall behind on reading posts. Iām grateful to Max and Riley always being under my feet. 
Iām grateful for my friends here and the support they give me each and every day. Have an awesome AF day!

Good to see you here, Jen @Runningfree 
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I feel accomplished today. Tired and good. I am grateful for the rain outside. Itās calming.
I am grateful itās the weekend.
I am grateful I continued with my teacher training today. Itās a lot of long practices. I will do it one after the other.
I am grateful I laughed out loud during my workout today. 
I am grateful Iāll have enough time to do my move in 5 weeks. I donāt like moving but waiting for the last minute to organise everything is far more stressful.
I am grateful I called the addition counselor in our company today. Just to get the situation with the colleague off my head. I found out his last name today. I wonāt do anything though. He is not willing to accept help. I am grateful to acknowledge that my own recovery is my number one priority.
In German AA says: we are there to share EKH. Erfahrungen, experiences - Kraft, energy - Hoffnung, hope.
ODAAT.
I am grateful I have enough.
Edit to what I listened to as the opening words for yoga today concerning the element air: freedom, being open. Choosing freedom. And in contrast to the fuck it mentally of freedom as I do it because I can, freedom is also to say yes to what is. Like Byron Kathie would say: loving what is. My yes to choosing sobriety for today. No regrets.

Today I am grateful for:
ā¢ My eyesight - Being able to see beautiful colors, the birds ans squirrels. And lfoe all around me
ā¢ A positive mindset
ā¢ Exercise and the courage to challenge myself in certain exercises
ā¢ Honestlyā¦ im grateful today that my life isnāt a waste anymore. Iām not sure why it took me so long to have quality recovery (where Iām not constantly relapsing ior āwhite knucklingā it). But it took as long as it took I guess to learn what I needed to learn
ā¢ Wind chimes - my mom sent me a video with wind chimes showing the backyard that I grew up in. That really meant alot. Reminds me of innocence and my inner child

Friendly suggestion. Chose one or two threads that have less posts. You donāt have to like and read everything. I have done the same at times as have many on here. Itās ok to fall behind you are where you need to be. Grateful for sunshine and wind

Hi Miranda, I also felt exactly the same, I couldnāt keep up and it was part of the reason I stepped back and slipped up. Please dont feel that way, seems weāre not alone. I want you here, and as I know now, I wonāt be able to reply to everyone, and itās okay. 
The quote below is from @Miranda, when I posted I was overwhelmed trying to keep up. Not sure how I screwed up trying to copy a quote, but to do it was stressful in its self

Today I am grateful to be off work early. My schedule changed a while back and I get off at 1:30pm now every Friday.
I am grateful for my fitness. I didnāt want to do either challenge this morning but I did. I remember when I couldnāt even do a burpee.
I am grateful for the food I cooked today.
Thatās all I got right now. This will be a challenge to find new things each day but Iām gonna try.

Youāre welcome @Miranda made me feel better with her story and I know thereās many more that feel the same and hopefully we can help them as well.
Iāve slipped up 2x when I stepped back. But I now know Iām okay if I miss a day or two and I wonāt feel guilty. Thereās more than enough wonderful people here to help. I hope your headache is better
