wife, family, friends, house, food, haircut, toenails clipped, hot shower, and the change in lifestyle that made it possible.

TIAGF The ability to listen to my body, to rest when it tells me to. I never listened to my body when I was messed up on pills. I always very much disliked myself. Now I am learning not to be my own enemy, but my own best friend.

Also for being able to go see Trans-Siberian Orchestra tomorrow night with my mom. It'll be my first outing like that sober, not numbed up on pills.

And as always, grateful for SR and everyone here. The journey to three weeks sober has been enriched so much by you.

I smile when I visualize LiaAc with her Mom at the concert. What a gift, and one you will never forget.

My Mom died in 1977, but I can still hear the beautiful music she made as a concert pianist with the full orchestra playing Swan Lake and other great compositions.

Sobriety has a lot of rewards waiting for you LiaAc. Enjoy.

I am discovering them every single day. The good definitely outweighs the bad.

Thank you Grt, you're the best!

being able to chair my home group and accept in the end it didn't go the way I wanted it too but went the way it was suppose to.

That I am not in an intimate relationship at the moment and that is just fine with me.

My 33 year old grandson who will be taking my wife shopping this morning, and I will be taking them to lunch today.

The miracle of EQs' recovery from her car accident.

Feeling the love that answers the pain that brought all of us to SR.
