Those of us who live in one day at a time recovery know each day can become gratitude in the making. Upon the beginning of each day we realize each day has a chance of being a good day. Our reality is even though we live with our disorders, our lives are manageable, and a manageable life is something to be grateful for. Experience has revealed this to us. Experience from living in one day at a time recovery has taught us the difference between healthy and unhealthy choices. Recovery has even shown us how to use unhealthy choices as an advantage to us. In later on appreciation we learn from our mistakes. Learning from unhealthy choices becomes gratitude in the making. Some call it wisdom which helps us to not make the same mistakes again. This is the positivity of growth. When we realize our lives are becoming gratitude in the making we start to see the wonders of life. Grateful people are a blessing to those of us who choose to live life one day at a time. These people model freedom and joy for us and we become gratitude in the making. It’s a gift. Peace.
