Gratefull for Sobriety!
 
all of us in recovery can be grateful for a lot of things.

but first and foremost it all started with being sober!

I am so grateful for my sobriety!! after being sober came hundreds of other things to be grateful for:

More money, less arguments, better sleep, better relationships, clearer thinking, more energy, more time to do things, more opportunities, better health, a sense of wellbeing.

Just knowing that I got out of that horrid place of HAVING to drink to cope has truly changed me inside.

My children have now seen that it is possible to change!!

Misslisa,

Thanks for that. I too am grateful for many things, and it's always nice to be reminded about them. Take care and keep up the good work!
