Day 289

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful to be alive and sober today.  I have been so grateful for everything I have.  I have nothing more than when I was drinking except my sanity.  Yet I have so much more.  I am so grateful for my family and those still in my life.  I really like the above quote.  I used to think if I had more I would be happy. But now I am so thankful for what I do have, and I am so much happier.  There is always something to be thankful for.  Be thankful for what you have, and you'll end up having more.  If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never ever have enough. Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I am realizing that I am truly grateful for many things.  Every Thanksgiving we go around the table and say one thing we are happy for, and I would usually just say "friends and family."  But now I am so grateful for so much more, remembering each person individually not just a group of people.  Just realizing each breath is a gift, each memory I have is a blessing.  So be thankful today, for all you have.  Have a great day!
