Grateful that I have again remembered that if I accept things fully as they are, then they will start to change.

Grateful I am finally understanding that everything in its flux is always perfect in the process but will look unfinished if frozen in time.

Grateful I don't know the end of my story and want to wait to see what Creation has in store for me.

Grateful I too have a part, I too, have a place.

Grateful my part right now is to start the coffee and take out the dog.

Grateful that I can appreciate not to add more problems, even if it seems boring.

Grateful that I know I'm responsible for my happiness.

Grateful that if nothing happens on many of these days that it's a good day cause nothing bad happened.

Grateful that I woke up on my own, early, without an alarm.

Grateful that I don't have that drop in mood mid morning that I had for so many years. Since I quit drinking that is gone.

Grateful that I don't feel hopeless and helpless and lonely anymore. Grateful I can turn to myself to help myself when I need help.

Grateful I am not feeling as cynical as I used to.

Grateful to be present and not missing out on life as it happens in real time.

Grateful to feel so much gratitude now, even though nothing "big" is happening.

venuscat -- i understand about the cat thing and feel the same a lot of the time - i'm always grateful for my furbabies.
newby...haha - i guess i can say grateful i have a bunch of hair even though some of it is gray
grateful for the people here and how nice it is to have a place to go where i'm not such the oddball on a crooked path, but have been there and done that with the rest of you. i'm glad to have company on the crooked path back to something better.

Grateful to be present in a suit and tie at my son's high school football banquet Sunday afternoon.

Grateful he's on such a better track than I was at his age.

Grateful he's never seen me drunk.
