I’m grateful I got to see the sun rise. I’m grateful for a baseball game with my son. I’m grateful for the time I get to spend with him. I’m grateful for air conditioning. I’m grateful for bowls of cereal at night. I’m grateful for not having to hide anymore. I’m grateful for taking things a step at a time. I’m grateful to be sober today.
If I was going to be honest with myself and all of you, I’d have to tell you that I really wasn’t terribly enthusiastic about waking up so early this morning. But then I saw this and muttered an “ok, ok, I get it,” to my higher power. Again, if I was going to go the self-honesty route, I would tell you that I’m not 100% sure why it was necessary for me to get up so early, except to remind me that there’s beauty all around me and lots to be grateful for. I know, I know.
On the subject of things to be grateful for, there’s Episode 14 of Breakfast with an Alcoholic just waiting to be appreciated:
What else is on the horizon, other than that big orange ball of fire? The Liner Notes for Episode 14, of course!
Happy Sunday,
