    Re: Express your Gratitude

    Grateful for this thing called determination. Grateful for music, my band, and musician friends. Grateful for being able to find some patience and clarity with new potential romance resulting in far less stress.

      Re: Express your Gratitude

      Grateful for a clear head today. Hubs and I signed up for a relationship class called A Lifelong Love at church (neither of which - church, class - would have ever, ever have happened while I was drinking) and tonight's session should be very interesting as it's all about physical intimacy. Great marriages don't just happen - it's a continuous build. Grateful he came back, stuck around and is willing to work on restoration.

          That's fantastic [MENTION=20527]Marylou123[/MENTION]! I know your hubs will not regret returning, not for one minute!

          Yes, [MENTION=7261]Guitarista[/MENTION], determination and perseverance are truly wonderful things!

          Grateful for forgiveness and altho it sounds redundant, I am indeed grateful for gratitude!

            It's so good to see everyone expressing their gratitude, I know it's not the magical answer or solution, but it doesn't cost anything, and it definitely helps!

            Tonight I'm grateful that it doesn't take much to see all the goods things we have, to not dwell on the bad things, and to live life the way it was meant to be lived, one day at a time...
            Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
            Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
            Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

                I'm grateful for my health

                  Grateful I didn't drink yesterday. The thought crossed my mind. Hung ten and surfed the urge.

                    Tonight I'm grateful that I got the grass cut at the farm, and Bubba got the grass cut in town, before the rain came, again, sheez...

                    Good for you Marylou! Letting the moment pass!

                        Tonight I'm grateful that I was able to sit in the backyard under the sun instead of cloudy skies!!

                          ...and the skies are not cloudy all day!
                          it's awful quiet here in the gratitude thread -thread-thread-thread! There's even an echo in here!
                          I'm grateful for going to bed sober. I'm grateful that I slept in this morning not because I had too much to drink last night, but because I could and because I needed to.
                          And I'm grateful for and humbled by caring friends.

                            Grateful to be coasting into the evening safe and sober. Grateful for freedom. Grateful I had a wonderful Dad. I do miss him so on this Father's Day.

                              I am grateful for the aeroplane. Because now i know that just above them cloudy grey skies, there are always sunny blue ones.
