You may not know how blessed you are sometimes until you visit the Hospitals. Life and good health is a gift, just a few live to enjoy it. Everyday is worth celebrating, every achievement no matter how little is worth being joyful for, and a dollar earned is something to be grateful for as long as one is not lying in the hospital bed battling with his life. I have so many things to be thankful for in life, first is the fact that I am alive, the second is the achievement I have made in academic, and lastly but not the least of it, the grace to enjoy that which I have laboured for.
Today, I'm a youth corper currently serving my country in a strange land, it hasn't been easy but in everything I have seen reasons to be grateful for, there are some things I can't explain how it got settled and I know God is behind it all. Life is a gift, enjoy it, do not allow worries about tomorrow deprive you of today's joy. If you could look around carefully, there are so many blessings around, sometimes the things you trivialize may be a blessing in disguise.
Today, I'm alive and is grateful for so many things. Family, friends, wealth, life, health, comfort, security, happiness, etc. Our blessings are uncountable. But until one sits and count the blessings one have enjoyed the days of his life, will he know what the Lord has done.
I am alive today, and I'm grateful.
