Today, I'm grateful I have an AA meeting to go to, and fortunately more than one to choose from if I want!

I'm grateful I am learning how to treat myself and care for myself better now that I'm clean and sober.

I'm grateful for the sober oldtimers who inspire me to not take a drink today no matter what.

I'm grateful for 3 1/2 years clean and sober.

I'm grateful for my family, friends, dog, home, TV, job, car, my debt shrinking, my health, laughter, freedom from obsession to drink or use, hope, getting outside help, and living and staying sober just for today.

Grateful I didn't harm anyone while driving.

Hokte, YES! You took the words right out of my mouth!

I'm grateful to be feeling like HELL! To be fighting my ass off for what I know is truly better than this HELL! To again feel the HELL I was once in long ago, and to know that if I just look up from this HELL hole I've dug for myself, I will see HEAVEN, and know there is a GOD who loves me and who wants me back!

This is such a great topic because there are so many days that I'll look at all the negatives and what I don't have instead of seeing all that I do have.

I am grateful for where I am in life today because it's where I'm exactly supposed to be.
