This month I've been focusing a portion of group each day towards gratitude with my women. It's brought tears of reflection to look at where they've come, and what sobriety has brought back into their lives. It's been emotional for me to watch the shift of attitude within our community, and how influential gratitude can be in our own lives.
This daily ritual has also been leaving me on the brink of tears as I reflect on all my many blessings. A couple nights ago I was up at 3:00 throwing up, and feeling worried about what my work day would look like.
As I quietly climbed back into bed, Kenneth rolled over in his sleep and pulled me closer. As I laid there wrapped in his arms watching my lover sleep, I also felt those miraculous baby kicks from my little man.
How do you take in such a piece of heaven, and truly be grateful.
