Gratitude List

[MajestyJo]

Grateful for another day.
Grateful that there wasn't much on TV tonight that I wanted to watch and I was able to catch up on some posts on another site.
Grateful that I had a very restful and healing sleep this afternoon, thanks to the treatment at the Holistic Center yesterday.
Grateful for TV dinners.
Grateful I have no need to go out as it says rain, freezing rain and ice pellets on the TV screen when I checked the weather just now. It is -5 deg. C which is 23 deg. F and seems colder with wind chill.
Grateful that Internet Explorer 7 seems to be working if I remember to delete the cookies and not let them pile up. Still finding my way around the formatting.
Grateful that I can go back to old posts and find new blessings and share with new friends.

When we look back, we realize that the things which came to us when we put ourselves in God's hands were better than anything we could have planned.

Alcoholics Anonymous p. 100

Got this from As Bill Sees It* today and it is something that expresses how I have been feeling. There is nothing I can do, other than do the do things each day, put turn things over and leave them in His Hands.

I need to eat properly. I need to get my rest. I need to do my meditation and prayers. I need to meet my daily commitments both in my home and on the internet.

Many years ago, I put my life into God's Hands. I didn't know what my purpose was. I questioned my reason for being. The answer I got was, "Carry the message to the message of recovery to those who still suffer."

So unless He changes His mind, I will be here!

* Never knew that the book was called "The AA Way of Life." It just goes to show how we can be so selective in our vision, hearing, and choices and are often unable to see the whole picture. Every time I open a book, I see something new. The news never becomes old!

Grateful for all those who walk this journey with me.
