Gratitude List
1.) Grateful to be free, sane, and in control of my life
2.) Grateful to have people who care about me
3.) Grateful to be alive
4.) Grateful to be sober
5.) Grateful to be able to be kind to others with charity and service

Slept as a rock last night, woke up early had 7 hours of sleep, recharged, my back is a bit better. I also have a lot to do today, Have my doctor’s appointment in Oakland today. I also have a few errands to run in Berkeley.
Spoke Karen today, she is a bit busy on hold on one of those automated service things. I also grew more spiritually.

Furthermore I understood within myself, more that I need to try and work harder on my inner soul and spirit. And faith of a god of my own understanding and innerpersonal faith, spirt and soul of the heart, mind and body.
