feeling very blessed tonight....


my husband is an alcoholic.  he has been sober for 2 years.  i love him whether he is drinking or not drinking.  he is an amazing man with a crappy disease.  

he does such nice things for me.  we go to las vegas with my parents every year.  he does this because he loves ME.  he is gentle to the point of almost being a pushover.  he is soft spoken, rarely raises his voice.

he LOVES animals and wouldn't hurt a flea.  my alcoholic is one of the kindest men i have ever met. 

geting ready for bed.  just feeling grateful......

Thanks debhud, It sounds like you are blessed. Being affected by someone's drinking can result in moments when our self-esteem and self-worth are left battered and thrown to the curb. We feel like we don't deserve these great things. I love those moments of serenity that emerge when we can see more clearly :) Keep coming back.

thats a great share...gratefulness is a wonderful thing. One of my greatest tools is writing down the things that make me grateful everyday.

When i read them i have a smile on my face it helps to stop the selfpity. And a reminder of all the great things in my life!

Thankyou
