i am so beyond grateful that god gave me the opportunity to start my life over & become someone completely different. im grateful to have started this job & that it’s the first time ive really worked sober ever. im grateful for the growth & change that comes with sobriety, not only the physical & mental but the emotional & especially spiritual. im grateful im able to stand up for myself & show myself the respect that not everyone does. im grateful that im able to differentiate those who love me for me & those who only want to be around for their quantity to go up. im grateful to understand the difference between quality & quantity.
every day is a great day to be grateful but im especially grateful today…. i truly never thought this life was possible for me. i thought id be dead by now - either from the drugs or by my self. i never thought id be able to be a functioning person. i never thought i could be happy - it seemed like such a fairytale.
today, im not only happy but (some may say) overly positive & joyful.
happy, joyous & free. the book doesnt lie.
and for that, for my higher power, for my sponsor & all the people in my life who have helped me get to this girl today - i am SO FREAKING GRATEFUL!
i hope you all continue to keep a heart full of gratitude. so much love!!!!!
