The gratitude I feel today is a direct result of the work I did yesterday.
•I understand that my goal must remain focused on continued spiritual growth. I'm grateful for the conversation with my grand sponsor that reaffirmed this.
•I’m grateful for a quiet mind that allows me to focus on my goals and be productive without interrupting with fear or anxiety.
•I’m grateful for the opportunities to try things and fail at them. I know failure is the pathway to success.
•I have a lunch date with friends today. I’m grateful to have friends who want to see me.
•There’s almost always someone who will answer their phone and talk to me about whatever is happening.
•Barkley and Norman continue to bring me peace and joy. I can’t imagine my life without dogs.
•I’m grateful that this way of living hasn’t felt like a mundane chore in a really long time. I enjoy my life in AA.
•I’m grateful that God has given me willingness, and the men in AA have shown me the actions.
•I’m grateful to be there for my friends when they need me. I still have a long way to go to free myself from selfishness and self-centeredness, but I have made some progress.
•I’m grateful that all these “next right actions” have become habits. I only pray that I never become complacent and continue striving for growth.
I pray that I may be grateful for the things I have received and do not deserve. I pray this will make me truly humble.
