Like you Gwen, I believe that my Gratitude List is endless. It includes everything and anything, here, there, and everywhere.
Yours are gooood!
Wonder if Barbie has a Gratitude List? My guess is..."Yes."
aaaaah, yes, a deeeeeep breath! thank you.
I still have all my childhood Barbies! They are almost 35 years old :)
I thankfully never was into Barbies, plastic or real life ones.
I dropped by to say hello.
Hello.
I simply love this blog. We just started a new biz that is called Grateful Chics. www.gratefulchics.com, so you see, we are like minded. Our Grateful Chics Gratitude Beads are another quick way to be mindful of 10 things anyone can be grateful for.
I added your blog to my blog roll at http://www.chron.com/channel/houstonbelief/commons/inspirationzone.html.
Thanks for the great inspiration! Joy
Recovery From Alcoholism ==============
For those of us who are recovering (or recovered if you would prefer -I won't enter that debate), we are not NOT doing something.
We are not running away from something. We are doing something positive - sobriety. And we are embracing the spiritual way of life we have been given.
I found through the steps that there was an entirely different way of life - that did not include alcohol in any way.
And when your friends are in AA, they understand you the way no one else can. The fellowship is just sublime.
I found a relationship with God that convinced me I never needed to live in fear again.
For an alcoholic, just not drinking is a nightmare. I need a lot more than an absence of something! I needed for that need to be replaced and it was.
