    Gratuity Journal!

    Hi everyone. I'm feelin a bit down at the moment, cause my wife has walked out on me after our fight this mornin. Probably mostly my fault, but hey, if this is how she wants to do it. She said some really hurtful things to me! So, i've decided to start this thread in order to stay positive. Being grateful for things in our lives allows us to see what's important, what's meaningful, and helps up see what we take for granted. So today i'm grateful for keeping my patience, while my wife hailed insults at me. I'm grateful that i didn't say anything hurtful back. I'm grateful that i am still sober, and i'm grateful for my double shift to keep my mind off everythin. We should write 5things everyday to be grateful for. Hava good day

    Diz - Well done you for being so positive in this situation. If 90% of our lives are good and 10% are bad we tend to always focus on the 10%. By doing this we actually add to the gobal negativity that effects us all so you can see how its vital we all stay focused on the good and there is SO much good....

    Today I am grateful for waking up without a hangover, for walking my dog in the sunshine, for the cup of coffee by my side, for my computer which connects me to the world and for the privilege of being human

          The journey is the goal. As long as you're fighting the good fight and you're not giving up on giving up, you're winning. It's not about how often you get knocked down, it's about how often you get up again. Sobriety the goal for sure. But striving to get to that goal is what it's about. Not getting there. Because the journey never ends. The journey is the goal.
