I'm thankful that my last relapse did not kill me !!! Not everone can say that. I'm thankful my wife did not leave me. I'm thankful to be home writiing this and not in jail. Most of all I am thankful that the LORD walks with me this day!!!! Please tell me what you are thankful for this day.

I'm thankful for being sober, SR, my family hanging in there with me and for God loving me when I couldn't love myself.

God brought me back to myself.

This is a great post. So often many of us focus on the negative and forget the simple things that are blessings. I am thankful that I woke up with a choice this morning. There were so many days in the past that I didn't. I'm thankful that I don't have to "figure out" out how I got home last night. I'm thankful that God has given me a second chance at life. I'm thankful that I have real friends now, both here at SR and in the rooms of AA. I'm thankful for the sun that is shining and the birds that are singing, I can remember when I hated them both because I was just getting to bed when they came out. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

I am so thankful that I can see the smile on my daughter's face.
I am thankful that I can hear her 5 year old laughter and it brings a tear to my eye.
I thank GOD every second, that as a sober person, I will not miss one more MINUTE of this beautiful little girl! Thank you, thank you!!!!! I am HAPPY to be sober today...and so very thankful!

I am thankful to be alive...like really really alive...like..not the walking, talking dead....but like a laughing, crying, breathing, dancing banana person.

I am thankful for my daughter and the wonderful, smart, caring and positive young woman she is becoming! She will be heading off to college very soon and for so long I have been afraid for her, but watching her today I realised that she is going to be OK! {and I will be too!} That has got to be exciting...knowing that the whole world lies ahead of you and that you are forging a path for yourself! I am so happy and proud of her and thankful that I was given the chance to see it all take place!

Great thread!!

I am a newbie to SR, however I gratefully have 7 months sobriety. Eventhough my heart is ripped to shreds with loneliness, I am ever so grateful to be feeling this pain rather thant the immeasurabe pain of my previous active addiction. I am grateful for the only two people in my life who do not use, friendship wise. I am thankful for all of the indiviuals I encounter in my AA community who are clean and sober and always there with a warm embrace, a kind word, or just the right encouragement when needed. Now, of course I am eternally grateful to this family, The Sober Recovery Home for Wayward Drunkies and Junkies. I am also grateful that God has chosen to let me live one more day, in hopes something I say or do throughout my day will encourage someone else to try the life that we have in recovery. Thank you one and all for being here. I look forward to reading everyday, sometimes twice per day your thoughts, and inspirations.

Big Love to you each and everyone.
