Saturday Afternoon Gratitude List and thoughts

One of the most fascinating things is how fast I can go from one feeling to another being sober. Drunks and Junkies do not like that. They only want good feelings or oblivion. HP gives feelings to help us move through life with a bit more guidance than if we didn't have those feelings. Also we create some wild things with our thinking. I had some unique problems in the last two days and today they are basically solved. The attitude of Gratitude works and connects me with higher power. I am happy today. I am so blessed.
