TDS Today I am Thankful 4 Vs. Just when you think it can't get no better, then it does!

My first day off after working a full week at my new job.
 
Thankful for the easygoing day at work. Had been gone for a week and will get another hopefully very soon.
 
Thankful I'm able to reach out to people and share the experiences I've had. We are all going to die anyway so I would rather die for Jesus Christ. Talking about it on social media may turn some people off, but it will reach certain people. Even if it's only a few. People need to hear the truth.

Thankful I am no longer paranoid and paralyzed by fear.

Thankful I want to actually live my life and I'm not thinking about killing myself this month. At one point, I was convinced I should kill myself on my birthday this month. The devil is a liar! I pray others will break free. The fight isn't over, but God will protect us.
 
Thankful we all can share our feelings without being judged, and being able to do that is precious for day to day life.

@CTC, feelings of sadness and suicidal thoughts are normal when the pressure is too high. Try to think of that as a natural part of us wanting to run away and hide -so to speak. It's how our mind works sometimes but it's temporary. Part of the package. Hope you feel better. Keep posting. :)

Thanks. You're always appreciated. ❤️
There's so much love and support here. That's a lot to be thankful for.
 
I am thankful there is only 41 more days until I have the best experience I will have ever had to date, possibly the best day I'll ever have in my entire life to come on top of that. That first moment I set my eyes on and place my lips upon my angel's soft, perfect neck - and of course every other cm of her body as well, I can't imagine a moment to be more grateful for the opportunity to have :) Let's just say I'm grateful for my baby, the girl I love in ways I can't, you don't even want me to, begin to explain ;)

Most of all, I'm grateful for the thought of our very first embrace and the moment we first get to actually touch one another. Gosh, there is nothing in the world I could imagine that would be better, more divine, or more perfect than that moment I get to first lay eyes on her IRL <3


This makes me so happy to read first thing in the morning, YEEEY :D ??<3
 
im thankful for not living that dark life anymore...fuck that.

i had a brief relapse last night...with coke. made me realize that i like my sober life more than the using life i used to have. even though im still depressed and get hella anxiety at times, its better than what i used to deal with. IVing heroin and meth was not a life.

im thankful for sobriety.
im thankful for my dad, who has never given up on me.

So good to hear! , I wouldn't be here if it was wasnt for my dad not giving up on me either. I can only hope I'm that strong and determined if and when I'm a 63 year old man dealing with his sons addiction for over 6 years.. it's easy to forget how much life experience your parents have and write them off as 'just born in the know'.. my life fitness better when I started to trust again. on day 25 clean right now. keep fighting the good fight everyone!
 
thankful for people that willingly express their compassion/warmth/love, to strangers even.

being treated kindly brings colour back into the world
Ain't that the truth.. blue lighters are some of the most caring people. my safest resource & closest friends I've never met.
 
Grateful for being alive and well.

Starting to think of a new diet, remodeling the apartment due to a future "vacancy" :\
Thinking of making a nice cozy room for the family and keeping it nice while it's vacant.
 
Being in here. :D

I know I have already talked about this before, but because of great people we are surrounded with some of us have had the chance to really change some life choices.

Because of so many great people that have inspired me in here I am finally sober for almost 2 and half years. I have never reached that mark before, now I'm feeling totally free. No more benzodiazepines, no more opiates.

And I'm glad I achieved this goal because with the routine I found that so many other good things have happened after the first year, I realized there is a silver lining where there's more than the recovery itself and that makes me feel good, I am truly grateful to be part of this beautiful community.

I wish you all a great day! Much peace to all ;)
