Grateful for a new day, watching the dawn and drinking delicious Fair Trade coffee -- grateful to be loved, befriended and cared for and to have done all the amends possible at this stage -- grateful for another 24 hours clearheaded and present to my reality and able to pass on whatever expereince. strength and hope I can -- grateful to AA and all the recovering alcoholics who gave me a new life and a fellowship to charish.

Grateful for each one of you who made it through another day and night sober to join me here

Love & peace

Mala

Grateful for the growing gratitude threads......

This morning it is one of the mornings where it is hard to be grateful for everything.. Hard but not impossible. My Mother, who I have practiced the principals with and made amends to and took baby steps with love and kindness toward reestablishing a relationship with after many years of estrangement told me our "new relationship" was not "mutually satisfying" and effectively severed the relationship again... ((deep sigh))

The gift is it inspires me to do whatever I need to do to maintain a loving relationship with my daughters......

Even though I have shared about it with my sponsor and support group... written about it... see the gift.... It is still a very large ouch... She is my mother for christ sakes.... She is 20 years sober.... Untreated alcoholism can be a bitch I guess.....

Grateful Lbad knows it's her mother's stuff, not hers...


Grateful for a good nights sleep.

and the amusement I felt watching the guys round the Bar-b-Que yesterday..it's a primal thing, I guess. :

hi Least!
