Grateful for new friends I'm making at SR.

Grateful that I found the courage to speak up about something extremely upsetting and challenging and scary for me. That I spoke my truth even though I was quaking inside. Grateful I could do that and start to build a new foundation for myself. Grateful because in the past I would have instead gotten obliterated on oxy.

Grateful I was brave in telling my truth in a quieter matter today too.

Grateful that I finally started into my mountain of laundry.

Grateful for these soft furry catfriends who purr and who make me laugh.

Just plain grateful.

Yeah, IM, one of my first two posts was about my lost voice. Unfortunately, a BIG crash in April 2004 wiped out the first couple of months of my posts. I wonder if there was a psychosomatic component to it then as well...

Grateful...seriously this time...to realize that, as amusing and protective as I found it to be for years, being superior, cynical, and sarcastic no longer serves me.

And grateful for an awesome session with my prana-soma healer. We talked a lot more than usual, but I guess that's what I needed.

Love and hugs,
Eddie
