Balancing The Scales

Today, I am grateful for surviving three suicide attempts when I was a young man in the thick of things way back in the late 60's/early 70's. If I'd been successful, I would have missed experiences and events in my life that, looking back, I have come to appreciate and thank God for.
Life's not been easy but now, all these years later, the good has managed to balance the scales in my favour.

Thank you Dear Lord

Today I am grateful for my new job. I had my final interview this week and thought I had completely ruined it. Turns out I didn't because I was offered the job the next day. I start the week after next and I'm very grateful for this opportunity.

Thanks,

Natom.

I am grateful for whatever it is that has given me the strength to be sober 214 days. This is where I historically falter. In the last 3 years I’ve had 8 months sober & 7 months sober. I think it’s different this time.
