thankful.

there are a whole host of things one can be thankful for (in no chronological order):

1. that first intake of breath one inhales the moment one wakes up.
2. being able to do the Subuh prayers.
3. hearing the sound of one's mum's voice calling out for one to come down and have one's breakfast.
4. being able to feel the cold water touching one's skin as one showers.
5. having proper clothes to wear.
6. going to work in a car, rain or shine, though one is not the one doing the driving.
7. being able to work and earn decent wages to make a decent living.
8. being able to smile and laugh during working hours though one feels tired.
9. being served free lunch at the hotel's cafeteria.
10. oh! the feeling one gets upon receiving texts from the persons one loves.
11. being able to spend time with one's family though they can be a drag at times.
12. one's parents constantly feeding one with one's favorite food instead of buying things.
13. being able to walk.
14. being given things one can never thought of having.
15. watching t.v. and being online
16. living in a peaceful country though the politic's a little crappy, one thinks.
17. being loved.
18. one loving people one loves.
19. having a roof over one's head.
20. the gift of the 5 senses that work quite well.
21. being able to continue one's studies.
22. being able to feel the sun or rain one one's skin.
23. being able to go to sleep on a bed.
24. electricity.
25. being given another chance to live another day.

one is blessed, one is. one just must learn to be more appreciative and not take things for granted. one must think of what one already has instead of the things one doesn't. one must not let go things that one has.


p.s: big things matter, little things matter too. more than big things sometimes.
