Let's start another gratitude list, but this time, things that cannot be touched, bought, sold, etc. Nothing material. Has to be all intangible, and very special to you.
Anyone want to start?
.....tick tick tick.....
OK, I will...
1. People can count on me to show up 2. My family is sleeping better 3. I am sleeping better! 4. I can often sit in silence and be content 5. I take care of myself physically and mentally 6. I enjoy tasting food again (and HOW!!) 7. I notice tensy weensy things I didn't before 8. I can think about "normal" THINGS AND NOT ALCOHOL 9. My smile is genuine 10. My tears are genuine now too....
next.........................

Right now, at this moment, I'm grateful because I'm not afraid of the silence, that I'm able to find peace in the silence and that I'm able to listen for God's will for me in this silence.
I'm grateful to feel useful. To feel and know there's a purpose for me.
1. Self-respect has come back 2. Other people can count on me again. 3. Being trusted. 4. Having a feeling of peace about me that I never had when I was drinking. 5. Being content with who I am today.
Take care,
Carol
