2. I am grateful my curtains are open today to let the sun in
3. I am grateful to have fresh air coming into my room tosqy[/b][/i]" for you

I have just done this. I don't know if it helps but I have pinned it next to my calendar on the wall. I have a whole side of paper. It sounds silly like 'I am grateful i have enough food in kitchen'. ' I am grateful I have a kitchen'. and so on.. I stopped after 1 sheet of paper. But it does make me think and life could be ok.
Thanks.

Not silly at all. There are alot of people who don't have food to eat. Who dont have kitchens. It really is the little things confused guy.

My gratitude list today goes like this:-
1. I am grateful to be going to bed clean and sober.
2 i am grateful to be alive.
3. I am grateful to have been given a 2nd chance at life
4. I am grateful I did not need to drink today
5 I am grateful I have a warm bed to sleep in tonight.
6. I am grateful I am a sober and present mummy for my daughter today
7. I am grateful for SR and everyone here, for sharing their struggles and their triumphs alike.

I could go on and on. I have a lot to be grateful for today.

Thank you for sharing confused guy, you have helped keep me sober.

I hope you get a good night's sleep or at least as much rest as you can. Tomorrow is a new day x x
