I am grateful for hope. Sometimes that is all that we have. Grateful for patience which gives birth to persistence and grateful for persistence which breeds but perseverance. I am grateful for my fellow addict, no matter at which stage they currently are. I am grateful for the hope that is in them, and grateful for the trials which plant the seeds of sobriety. I am grateful for my Higher Power, without whom I should only hope to be dead, lest I continue to live the selfish life of self pity, self abuse and self denial. I am grateful for the daily denial of self, grateful for hope and hopeful for greatness. Not only in me, but also in you.
