Things that I'm grateful for

You know how they say that sometimes you need to list down the things that you are grateful for to realise how lucky you are, or to remind you that things are not as bad as you think they are. Well, I am not writing this entry coz I am feeling like things are bad. I just feel like listing them down and maybe at the same time, let people know more about me.

• I am grateful that I have a wonderful family, great mum (even though I never mention it to her) who bakes and cooks well, a grandma who loves and pampers us, lovely aunts, adorable little cousins whom some I know loves having me around, etc...


• I am thankful that at least I know how it feels to have grandparents (it is really different how they love you). There are some who never got a chance to experience this joy.


• Sometimes I feel that I am alone/lonely, and most of my friends are too busy. However, I know there are a few special ones out there who really care and I am grateful for that.


• I thought of my India trip and the houses that the kids there live in, and I appreciate my life, and that I have a wonderful place to live in and my needs are all met.


• I appreciate all the support that I have gotten all these years from everyone I know, be it family or friends, or even acquaintances.


• I am grateful that I did not have to struggle through my education, financially, academically, and in other ways.. And that I have the opportunity to study and be where I am now (though there is still far to go). I still would like to pursue my education though.


• I think of all those who do not have jobs or have difficulties getting a job and I am grateful that I have a job (no matter how tough it may be sometimes, or how frustrating my job can get), and at least I do not have to burden my family financially and I can chip in here and there.


• I am grateful that God created me a healthy individual with all my five senses.

Wah, I felt like I have won an award at the Grammy's or something (applauses).. hehe. No wonder they say that to feel good, you should list down all these things. I know there are many more things that I should be grateful for, just maybe at this moment not able to list down.
