December Gratitude Post #19

On the eve of my 40th birthday, I am grateful for the following: my son, my family and friends, my health, my sobriety, my job, my education, my motivation, my perseverance, my determination, my intelligence, my sense of humor, my commitment to self care, and so many other things. Although life can be difficult and draining sometimes, I must remember that overall my life is great and I am accomplishing things that I once only dreamed of or never imagined myself doing at all. In fact, my life now is so drastically different than what it was even 5 years ago, it's hard for me to believe I am the same person.
And because of my sobriety, I have learned a great deal about myself and past relationship patterns in the past year. I am getting to know and love myself and that is the greatest gift of all!!! ❤
