Morning Manon! yes I am grateful for being guided by the God of my understanding and also for the "spiritual awakenings" happening in my life by walking as close as possible with my higher power and working the 'process of NA.For my 2 children 44 and 43 who lived thru the storm of my addiction and came out on the other side okay and for my family at home ,my wife (whom I am sure God sent for me)my 2 children Eric andSarah (21 and 23).For the strength to handle the 'life on life terms situations that have been in our lives for awhile and for my health that even at almost 62 I am still strong and relatively in good condition(amazing after 25 years of devastation)I am heading out to my tree to pray,meditate continue my gratitude list and maybe even get a shot off.I will at least enjoy the family in the woods as the earth comes alive and all Gods creatures start their day,it is a joy to see the sun rise over the mountain and the squirrels chasing each other,small things in life that make my heart sing.Have a blessed day and make the most of it....peace
