The gratitude I feel today is a direct result of the work I did yesterday.
•I’m grateful for my grand sponsor and all his wisdom and the ancient wisdom of stoicism.
•I’m grateful that whenever I am confused about how to proceed, I can almost always find one small, right action to move me forward.
•I’m grateful that in the program, there always seems to be “a guy” for whatever I need. I’m blessed to be a member of such a large and diverse fellowship.
•I’m grateful for all the love and support that my mom and Tom provide.
•I’m grateful for all my friends and mentors who took the time to talk me off the ledge yesterday.
•I’m grateful that I can measure my life by my actions rather than by the results. The actions are up to me, and the results are God.
•I’m grateful for my dogs, who don’t care at all about whether or not my budget is aligned with my goals or if I’ve been productive or not. They just love me, and I love them.
•I’m grateful for the abundance of meetings in the valley and specifically for the Chandler noon meeting I found yesterday.
•I’m grateful for this morning's (timely) reading, which reminds me: “For us, material well-being always followed spiritual progress; it never preceded.”(p. 127).
•I know from experience that as time goes on, the future takes care of itself. Everything works out well as long as I stay sober.
I pray that I may be grateful for the things I have received and do not deserve. I pray this attitude will make me truly humble.
