gratitude in the joint

This evening, we headed out to Monroe with a carful. Two other guys met us there for a total of 6 volunteers at our 12-step meeting. That is the most volunteers we have had in years at the second Thursday meeting.

It was great meeting. We had ten minutes at the end, so I asked everybody to quickly state what they were grateful for. Answers varied from coffee to serenity to family and so on. The bottom line is that we all stated something that we were grateful for. It is amazing to me how simply talking about gratitude makes us all feel better.

I am grateful for my life and my recovery today. Also grateful for good friends, DSL, my new-ish home theater PC (old case, new insides) and economic security.
