I am so grateful that I have hope now and even when things are going wrong, I know everything will work out because I can turn it all over to God and he will work it all out in his time.

I had a cousin (God rest his soul) who had me hold a firecracker a count to

---, before throwing it. Course it blew. That was mean. Charred my po'

little fingies..still a little naive. Dang, Rust..guess I'm lucky..I was little,

or it was a little firecracker, or a dud.

Grateful for all my fingies and my faculties!

today i'm grateful that god chose to wake me up another morning

i'm grateful i got arrested

i'm grateful i have a dad who never gave up

i'm grateful that i have a husband who's eyes light up when he looks at me

i'm grateful that i don't have to worry who i hurt last night

i'm grateful i didn't have to wake up in the middle of the night to do a bump fixed up the night before and set on my nightstand...i'm so grateful to be out of that nightmare

i'm grateful that there is hope....always hope

i'm grateful that no matter how many times i fall god is standing there just waiting for me

i'm grateful that i get a chance to show my daughter that her mom is a fighter

i'm grateful that puppies love unconditionally

i'm grateful that someone saw something in me that i didn't and believed for me until i could believe for myself

i'm grateful for the stars that i haven't noticed in years

i'm grateful today.... i need to stay that way....

today i will remember how bad it was... i choose to not forget where i came from...that keeps me grateful.

Welcome to the thread DG and Freshstart.

Grateful to be feeling semi-peaceful, clear-headed and hopeful.
