Went to the 7am at Harbor this morning where a host of friends (52} welcomed me as they do every morning. Watched as a newcomer picked up his first 30 day chip and listened as he shared about spending this Thanksgiving sober for the first time in his life. Reflected on all of the men who have gone before me to the big meeting in heaven and what an impact each one of them had in my sober life. Watched and listened as each person called on to share expressed gratitude for what the program has brought them. Was reminded that each day of sobriety is a day of Thanksgiving. Will be reaching out to all family members scattered throughout the country later today to tell them how much I appreciate and love them-and thanks to the program, they will return the favor. Since April 28, 1998, this miracle has been repeating itself, and it never ceases to amaze me how grateful I am today for the life I now have thanks to AA. May each one of you have a day full of joy, happiness, and serenity.
