I am grateful to be in a new place for Thanksgiving. I am not going to put on my blast that I am missing my dear Mom who died 8 months ago and am away from my husband on Thanksgiving for the first time in 35 years. I am grateful that I will be able to talk to him and my kids even in this new place. And I am grateful for you, Caroline, and Dr. Lee Warren, who introduced me to you.

🙏🏼grateful for you and praying for peace and joy for you this holiday season, even though it sounds like you’ve experienced loss. 💜

I am grateful today and everyday for my recovery. My active drinking could've cost me the relationship I have with my children and today I get to help my daughter cook Thanksgiving dinner for both of my children and their families. God has graced me with so much more than I deserve and I am so grateful.

Beautiful words, Caroline. Helps put things in perspective, 🙏🏼

I like how you point out gratitude need not be some grand gesture- we can micro-dose it. ❤️

Oh I love this idea of “micro-dosing” gratitude 🙏🏼 I think sometimes I expect these grand sweeps of feeling joy or gratitude when in reality they often come as whispers.

I practice gratitude every day but that wasn't easy in the beginning. This year on my 29th sober Thanksgiving I reflected just how grateful I am. It's been a rough since beginning of November yet without my tribe and sobriety it would be worse. I'm grateful for this recovery journey.

PS I'm grateful I had the chance to met you and aliens time in June with you.
