Gratitude Lists

I just looked over a dozen or so recovery blogs, and at least half of them were basically gratitude lists — and photos. (Apparently drunks take a lot of pictures; I know I do. I just don’t post many because it makes the pages load slowly.)

Anyway, gratitude lists weren’t what I was looking for, and I started to get annoyed that these people didn’t have anything else to say. Then I was like — whoa, big fella! These people aren’t posting to please you, they’re posting for the joy of it, because they’re sober and happy and grateful.

And, suddenly, so was I.

Go figure.
