Gratitude List~

We have had so much sorrow on here lately that i thought it would be good to look at some of the things we are grateful for.  When life gets us down it gets real easy to only focus on that and it becomes very hard to see the good.  I think we will all be pretty amazed at what we come up with~

I'm grateful for you people on here, NA and AA which are truly gifts from God. I'm grateful to be able to wake up in the morning and feel NATURAL energy rather than false opiated energy borrowed from my future.  I'm grateful to be able to even WAKE UP in the morning!! I'm grateful I no longer need to worry if my doctor will renew my scripts, or, worry about the fact that the dope I do have isn't enough to satisfy my ever increasing and insatiable desire for more. I'm grateful I don't even need it anymore! My interest have returned, my desire to be sociable has returned, my ability to love myself and in-turn love others has returned. I'm grateful for life and the fact that I'm beginning to again accept life on life's terms.

I am most grateful for my wife and son and for my friends.  This would also include each of you here on the site!

I am thankful for my job, overall decent health and good finances.  I am also thankful that I have the ability to know I need to continue to work on being more thankful for all of life's blessings and more accepting of its challenges.

I'm grateful for a number of things, first my family and the friends I have made here! Everyone is amazing and without all of u idk if I would have made it this far! I'm extremely grateful for being 122 days sober! I honestly can't believe its been tht long already but I guess that's what happens when u put Ur mind to it and want it as bad as I do and we all do!!!! I've never been so happy as I am right now mainly BC I'm so proud of myself and everyone here tht is working their tails off to stay clean and sober as well as the ppl just starting out. Please known it does get better and there is s light at the other side of the tunnel:) I'm so proud to call all of u my friends even my family!!! Live maria <3

I am happy for finally being the mom my kids deserve, the wife my husband married, & of course staying clean & sober for 30 days! Awesome idea Sarah, you are right sometimes we need to remind ourselves why we decided to get clean! Thanks to all of you!
