Me too. And waking up.
I'm thankful that more and more I'm starting to crave a life that has less to do with drugs and more to do with fulfilling my own goals and maintaining and building relationships with people who are important to me. It's so easy to lose sight of these things when the clouds of depression move in, and it's still a struggle, I'm just glad that I'm realizing that I'm most fulfilled by activities that connect me with life rather than help me escape it. I still love to get high and what not but I don't want that to be the center of my existence.
I'm thankful for the above realization, it's been a long time coming.
Today I am thankful for my country. I think it's very fitting since this weekend we are celebrating our independence. I know people in other countries don't always hold us to the highest regard but we are a great place full of great people (just not always foreign policies)...
Today I am thankful for whatever has kept me sober for a week.
