The list if humunganormis (new work I just made up). What pops in my head at the moment is being able to live my dream of owning a business.

I am grateful that I am now able to focus on more than just ‘not drinking.’ That I’m starting to gain real clarity on the work required to become my best sober self.

Today I am grateful for fellowship. Through it and sobriety, that gentle sense of love and faith that feel paradoxically unbreakable have been restored to me of late.

Man, do I need some gratitude today!

I am so thankful for my strengths. Some days it’s hard to see them. It’s almost like I refuse to acknowledge the admirable qualities for fear of becoming overconfident. It’s a balance I suppose. I couldn’t really name one, but I know there’s some good stuff in there…somewhere

I’m 61 days clean from pot. That’s something I would have scoffed at a few months ago. I thought I would need the “medicine” for the rest of my life.

I’m getting better at identifying emotions and dealing with them in the moment in rational way.

Thanks Geoff! There’s progress, and I’m happy for it. Still trying to drive the wagon around the familiar ruts sometimes.

Man, give yourself credit for this. That is huge growth for anyone, especially for us alcoholics and addicts. We didn’t do that for years. Changing the way you identify and respond on the fly is a big damn deal.
