thoughts in my brain come out of your mouth

I knew a man with a PhD in nuclear engineering from MIT that attended AA meetings with me in the 1990s. His brain destroyed him, and he died drunk.
The point of this negative info. to me is I have not only not taken a drink today, and neither have you despite the ride inside, but we get to shed tears of joy from the love of people like us.

Grateful the building contractor finished hours before he said he would..
Grateful to have my little flat back to myself...with little V, of course.
Grateful I can have a nap this afternoon...stayed up way too late last night.

Grateful to have survived the pouring rain while going out to lunch with the seniors.
Grateful for the love in the group.
Grateful to realize once again that restaurant food raises the sugar in my blood, so I need to back off. Two people in the group are close to death from their diabetes.
Not grateful for the waitress pushing deserts with alcohol toppings. Beware of alcohol in food in restaurants like wine and vinegar on the salad.
Grateful for another day to suit up and show up.

I am thankful for being able to feel compassion for others - like SW dealing with his wife and the loss. A year ago I didn't give a f about anything and was angry all the time.
Sorry to hear of your loss SW and glad yo can be strong for your wife.

You are strong, and I know you can handle this.
But please know we are here with you every step of the way.
And you know I love you.

I am grateful for my creator.
I am grateful for another day sober!
Days are adding up!
SoberWolf, today I will pray for extra strength for the two of you. You have helped me through some tough times and I don't know what to say yet but I will send prayers. ((Hugs)) you are doing an inspirational job trying to remain strong for your girl. All these emotions are running their course. It will get better with time.
