Each of my days are miracles. I wont waste my day; I wont throw away a miracle. -- Kelley Vickstrom Its so easy to forget to be grateful for our many blessings. We may take our freedom from the compulsion to drink or use for granted. Having learned to monitor our behavior and change it when necessary, we seldom treasure this skill as an asset. The rut of complacency claims all of us at one time or another. And our complacency can lead us to the stinking thinking thats only a step away from drinking or using or some other compulsive behavior. Having sponsors point out our complacency may irritate us, but it may also save our lives. Practicing gratitude will keep us aware of the small and large miracles that we have experienced on this recovery journey: We remember where we were last night (thanks to the clear vision of abstinence). We have reconciled with family members. In fact, we are walking miracles, and God has a plan for the rest of our lives. Lets be ready for it. I will try to be attentive to every moment of today, knowing that each experience is part of the miracle of my life
