Gratitude List

Today I really want to gripe and bitch about many things.  I want to talk about my anxiety, depression, fears and most of all about the hurt I feel.  Instead I am going to make a "Gratitude List" because even I am tired of hearing myself whine.

I am grateful that I live in this house with this family.

I am grateful that I have lived for almost 73 years, so many I have known have had less time.  And a lot of those who were given less time didn't abuse their bodies with substances that I have.

I am grateful for bed.  It is so comfortable and inviting.

I am grateful to friends who will spend time with me, even when I am not the best company.

I am grateful that I have been alcohol free for almost 25 years.

I am grateful that the children I carried and gave birth to are healthy and as loving as they are, and to the ones that I didn't give birth to, that love me also.

I needed to do this.
