Tonight I am grateful for a supportive friend.

I talked to an old friend tonight and he was 100% behind helping me get sober. He said all the right things, and the timing couldn't have been better. Thank you.

Today I'm grateful for my friends who have stood by my side for the past couple years and finally saw me muster up the balls to go to my first AA meeting today.

Thank you.

Grateful for day five of sobriety. Grateful for a chance to get it right - finally! And of course always always grateful to God for giving me these two loving dogs to care for and love. They keep me grounded. I need to be sober to take proper care of them, and God is helping me thru my dogs and my friends, here and in 'real life'. I am grateful I can realize that I should count my blessings, as I really do have a lot of blessings.
