Grateful to be alive!
 
I'm so grateful that I was given another chance. I never thought that I would see another clean and sober day again and here I am putting together "ONE DAY AT A TIME" and my 24s are starting to add up. I have gratitude bubbling over from the inside......and yeah, these last few days I've had to do things that I didn't want to do but I needed to do for my sobriety... and it has been worth it.

I'm so grateful to be alive, clean, and sober tonight!

I'm grateful that I can spend time with my brother and sister and be myself and not in a haze.... and I can enjoy and treasure each precious moment with them. Life is precious and each moment is a gift. :c005:

Your words offer bright encouragement, hope. Moving forward here in my life too, or trying to, that is. I suspect it will be worth it...

One thing that I heard at a meeting the other day was "Always try to keep on foot on the ground, that way when we are not having such a great day, we won't have to fall so hard" Made sense to me. Grateful for you too Cheryl :Val004:

We are all in this together!

I'm grateful to have such wonderful caring friends that stand by my side and help me move forward. That is a true blessing. That is a real treasure to have great friends! :)

I'm grateful that I went out and went for a run today and got to see the beautiful nature that surrounded me. With each footstep, I felt in touch with nature and enjoyed the sights.

I had Taco Bell for dinner. :) That was good.

Hi Arura,
Hope your day is going well! :)

Grateful for the rain today.
I walked and let the raindrops hit my face and it felt good. There was a long time when I didn't get to enjoy these simple pleasures of life but now I'm looking through eyes of clarity and a mind that is not in a haze.... what a blessing!

I'm grateful for sober days and sober nights
God
Friends
A warm bed to sleep in
Food to eat

Time for some gratitude.

I'm grateful that my rent is paid this month and
for knowing that no matter what happens, I
don't have to pick up a drink or drug.. I still
get a warm, fuzzy feeling everytime I think
that I never have to use again. :c005:

I'm grateful that I just ate a healthy meal
and that I'm learning to take care of myself
today.

I'm grateful to have the people I've surrounded myself with on here (Hope4life and aasharon...among others), and with me in GA including my amazing fiancee HunnyBee and all the amazing people in my NA group. I'm grateful that I'm alive and that every day my recovery moves further along. And last but not least, I'm grateful that I'm clean and sober today.

I feel grateful to myself for having had the strong desire and determination to stop drinking and any substance abuse!
I am grateful to my inside "self" to be able to keep the flame of determination and hope alive!
