Today I am grateful for...

1. I am grateful for the quiet reflection time I had whilst eating breakfast this morning as I didn't have to rush out of the door 💭

2. I am grateful that my day involved playing with a child that I am working with 👶

3. I am grateful that I was able to consider and take responsibility for my actions, and not be defensive when I received hurtful criticism 😳

4. I am grateful that I have nearly completed the year long professional development scheme I am doing...roll on the 30th April when I hand in my portfolio ☺

5. I am grateful for the beautiful young blossom trees I drive past each day to work 🌸🌸🌸

My gratitude list today is going to be slightly different. I just wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for that decision I didn't know I was going to make on that Monday in January, but one that has transformed my life for the better. Every day since, I have experienced a sense of relief that alcohol is no longer a part of my life. The decision to thrive in sobriety has opened the door to a great many other positive changes in my life, which it had been preventing. I am begining to finally know what it is like to be at peace with myself, to deal with difficulties from the past in a healthy and healing way. I have grown as a person and am working hard to implement the strategies I have been learning about in the inspirational audiobooks I have been listening to. I am finally beginning to love and value myself. I have given myself the gift of health; being 23 lbs lighter so far, running three times a week and fueling my body (and not my emotions) with wholesome nutritious food. I finally have a life with true meaning and happiness...and guess what...it was here for me all along x

Today I feel harassed and weighed down under pressure...despite which today I am grateful for...

1. I am grateful for waking after a restful nights sleep to a sunny bright morning 🌞

2. I am grateful for the dinner out with friends this evening 👭👭

3. I am grateful that even though it caused aggravation canceling a social engagement because my fiancé double booked...I wasn't looking forward to the event and am actually relieved we can't go now! 😉

4. I am grateful that the deadline for a piece of work I have to complete has been pushed back, relieving a considerable amount of pressure as it had been clashing with the deadline for another big piece of work I have to complete 😥

5. I am grateful that even though I have had a tough day through practice I am now able to see the positives in every day 💜
