SHORTS ~ Subconsciously grateful

Greetings pupil.

I was delaying to write for this post as I was in contradiction of weather to write. It is because of the topic. I am not so sure how am I doing to deliver it. In the middle of surfing through my feeds I come across a lovely post written by @surrealfia. She sparked up the eager me to start writing. Thank you.

Every time life throws a burden on me, I do not make a contact with it. Instead, I try to keenly observe through life. It is those moments that I get to appreciate what is dearest to me.

What I hold dear to is subject to my vulnerability. I come from a family who struggled through a time when we survived only on rice-lentils-eggs. We are a big family but the only earner is dad. We have come across moments of bliss, in the streets of Saudi Arabia. We have come across turmoil separating relationships yet we cling onto them for some rhyme or reason. We have come across days of hardship and days of freedom, living in Bangladesh.

After all that we have come across, how can we not be grateful?

Grateful to me is a term which is often mixed with realizing versus keeping in mind. There are people who are constantly aware of the blessings they have and are grateful for it subconsciously. While there are a few who are grateful time to time, when they realize, consciously.

The beauty of breathing, sneezing, even coughing is a hint to be grateful for. Even the slightest notion of using our senses, our physical strength and mental stability, is a hint to be grateful for. If you observe keenly, there are many privileges that many of us avail but we are unconscious or ignorant of it.

This is my fifth post in HIVE. I hope to connect well with everyone. This is me here, Lemonade1, I am a bookworm, meaning I love reading books more than anything. It is my first priority and also my last. Besides everything else, I love traveling and I aim to create my travel diary here.
