A Short List

Writer’s block or sloth strikes again resulting in a list of things that I am grateful as suggested by Lea:

Being alive
Sober friends
Flowers on our balcony
Plenty of food to eat
Sobriety
Lea

Skimmed the book Happiness for Dummies today at the library.  The one factoid I got out of it was that most people have a sense of entitlement that blocks them from being as happy as they can be.  Writing about gratitude helps me lower my sense of entitlement and self-righteousness resulting in much greater appreciation for all the good people and things in my life.


I am grateful for another day sober, money in the bank, a pleasant place to live and a comfortable bed with many pillows that reduce body pain while I sleep.
