Grateful for another day.
Grateful that the day was warm enough to take my jacket off on the way home from the mall.
Grateful that I made it to my Al-Anon meeting.
Grateful there was a newcomer there. I knew I was in the right place.
Grateful that I didn't talk myself into going, I was sitting at the bus stop wanting the bus to come to take me home.
Grateful I followed up with the thought and didn't let myself justify going home.
Grateful that my son cooked dinner, baked chicken, mashed potatoes, and mixed vegetables, and I made the gravy.
Grateful that this is a one day at a time program. I need the program just as much now as I did 22 years ago.
Grateful for all of you who share this journey with me.
Grateful for the principles of the program. Step one for me, means honesty, surrender, and acceptance.
