We are here to add what we can to, not to get what we can get from, Life. ~Sir William Osler
Today I am grateful…
- for last night’s home cooked meal of roast beef with horseradish sauce, mashed potatoes with gravy and fresh green beans
- that my obsession yesterday afternoon with listening endlessly to Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance has subsided
- for a return to more seasonal temperatures here in Texas
- that a sober Monday morning is a great start to any week
- that gratitude, practiced daily, results in a peaceful heart
One of the great gifts of sobriety is learning to see beauty in things not always with
the eyes, but with the feeling of the heart. ~Shelley

I love the lake in your backyard. Is that your new boat?
Yup, daily practice. That's the ticket.
That yellow boat in the water is the epitome of serenity.
Great photo. I can just feel what it would be like to row that boat there.
Thanks for the post.
Now THAT's a gratitude list.
I always forget how much I love food!!!
Is that a slop bucket behind the boat?
LOL MC! Something like that!
The dead body bobbed up behind that boat. I guess it wasn't properly tied & weighted. Awkward moments like this can be avoided with attention to details.
