[digger1976]

I am grateful for my second chance at life, for my last chance with my family, for this glorious site and all the great people, for my health, to wake everyday with a smile and a happy heart, to creativity which I love again and to have a future, whatever it may be! I'm sitting at 7.30am happy to be awake listening to the birds sing, with no stress or need for anything, (apart from coffee), (and a cig), (maybe some coco pops too), life is to cool clean! Love it, ;)

[dominosarah]

I have really enjoyed reading everyones list.  It's pretty amazing to see what we are all grateful for.

Vicki and ImDone....Bed always has to be made before we climb in and bodies need to be clean!!

[littlebit667]

I am grateful that my kids stood beside me as I detoxed and became clean.  

I am grateful that I can now enjoy life and my friends and not avoid them because I would rather be deep in my pills.

I am grateful that I am not depressed ALL the time anymore.

I am grateful that I have enough food on the table, a roof over my  head and way too many damn clothes! :)

I am grateful to still be here to enjoy my husband, my kids and my dogs.  

[meegWpaw]

i am grateful that vicki and vida made me lol tonite.  i am grateful for my life, my health, nature, writing fiction and journals, music, my job, my car, my apartment, my friends, hiking, dancing, workouts, my spirit, medhelp, my medhelp friends, medhelp, my medhelp friends, medhelp, my medhelp friends, my clean days, na, my faith in myself and the faith of the people who still believe i can get clean.  oh yeah and kurt cobain

[clean_in_ks]

I am grateful that I can lay here tonight and belly laugh until tears roll down my face at all your comments.....because you see, I wouldn't think any of your comments were funny/hysterical if I hadn't spent so much time getting to know and love all of  you.

Our camaraderie (mutual trust and friendship among people who spend a lot of time together)......makes your heartfelt/serious expressions of gratefulness touch me in a way I couldn't have felt 16 months ago.

I'm grateful my spirit is receptive to God once again~

[BarbRTR]

I'm grateful that although I only had my parents for 24 years before they died, that they were the two most amazing people that ever lived. I'm grateful of the values in which they instilled upon me, and that I am finally understanding them all.

I'm grateful for my family, my kids, they make me proud and I'm lucky to be their mommy.

I'm grateful I made the decision to stop pills before my life was totally ruined.

I'm grateful for my friends. They are the best.

I'm grateful that when I became sick, that my disability was approved without a fight, so my family didn't starve. And I'm grateful there are Drs out there researching cures.

I'm grateful that I'm grateful, and not a selfish person ( thanks Mom and Dad)

I'm grateful my Tide wins more than they lose.

I'm grateful that I have so much to be grateful for, that if I listed them all, I'd bore y'all to tears!

And I'm so grateful for everyone here on MH. You see, I can't hear anything in meetings (AA,NA) so you all are my only connection to talking and sharing experiences with other sweet, wonderful, good hearted addicts. I need each and everyone of you. And y'all are always there for me. Thanks isn't enough...

Oh, and Vicki, the rule in my house is the bed MUST be made before going to sleep.  So that means even if we were lazy that day, and didn't make the bed in the morning, it HAS to be made first before we can go to bed again that night.  HA!
