I am grateful for CHANGE!

I used to tremble and shake like a 9.0 on the richter scale at even the thought of change..........

It's awesome to walk through this world ALIVE and with a dignity and peace that can only be explained as a miracle.......and a privilege.
I was blind, but NOW I see.........

My prayer is for ALL who suffer to be able to feel the ecstasy of FREEDOM, the joy of CHOICE, and the CALM of RECOVERY.....and no matter what storm rages around them, it can NEVER come within, because recovery plants a solid rock and foundation withIN you that NO one and NO thing can break.....LIFE will still bend you and toss ya about a bit, but broken you no longer have to be.

I am so thankful for SR and all the wisdom and wonderful things it has helped me accomplish......

I am scared, exhausted, in a lot of pain......BUT I am still grateful to be ALIVE!
I LOVE being alive now, even in my worst pain.....thankful I am alive.....it still gives me goosebumps that I got here.......I have made it so far. yet it feels so scary when i think I might die.....I will just pray and be thankful for the good doctors outt here.I will pray that I can find one now.
I am grateful I finally got up the courage to fire my doctor today.
I deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.

2 Stop..

You posted on 5/18........

I am grateful for CHANGE!

and no matter what storm rages around them, it can NEVER come within, because recovery plants a solid rock and foundation withIN you ....life will toss ya about a bit, but broken you no longer have to be..

Ditto ditto ditto to that!!!!

Just where I am right now....if I look at the (sucky) circumstances..I would

freak.

But I believe in the unseen answers and blessings on the way....

And the (sucky) things lose their power... :

Grateful for the unseen...

Love,

IO

I am grateful for the flowers in my backyard. I just made a bouquet of flowers and placed it on the piano. Fresh flowers make me feel so happy! especially when they are freely abundant in my own back yard!
Thankful for my home, it is a real struggle to save it, but come June 28th I have faith and already thank'd the universe for providing the remaining amount of money we need to close the loan. I think in the grand scale of things that faith, work and the universe WILL provide the remaining $650.00. I am grateful I am so believing and full of hope and faith now! few years ago I would have been in bad shape in two ways, I would have been doped up beyond belief AND crazy as hell, not able to leave my house.
Thankful for change.........and inner peace.
