    Fall 2016 Gratitude

    Wanted to start a fresh gratitude thread this Monday morning.

    Today I am grateful for my yoga and meditation practice that has helped me be patient while I wait for my new job to start.

    Today's mantra: I will not be guided by fear.

    Today i am grateful for 29 days of sobriety. I am grateful for my new car, my optimism, self confidence and faith in the universe and self in deciding to buy it and rock my world with a bit of joy and comfort. 'm grateful for my band who stick with me through thick and thin.

        haha... thanks Starty! I am going to repeat it over and over all day.
        It is a good reminder. I really have nothing to lose anyway, it isn't like there is a good chance I am going to be kidnapped or something? If all fails I get on the plane and come back. No big deal.

        It is really funny because after I posted this my hd said to me "aren't you afraid to go to China?' I just said no.
        And I do not doubt this decision either.

          Hi everyone!

          I was just thinking about this today, too! Besides being extremely grateful for all the big stuff - health, family, etc, I'm grateful that I was able to quit my addiction before it led me to ruin. I still have a job, savings, and people who love me. I'm also grateful that I no longer have some of the worries I did before I quit. I no longer worry about running out of booze, I can get in the car and go where I want at any time without worrying about getting a DUI or worse, and I don't worry about being embarrassed that someone finding out about my drinking.

          The down side is that I, when I do dumb stuff, I can't blame it on alcohol anymore!
