Counting My Blessings, Naming Them One-by-One.

Ah, why do we have to use a gun 😄....just so to count my blessings 😁. But it's alright, I have things to say and to be grateful for.

First is life, yeah. Life is a gift, a new day is a gift. So, the fact that I woke up on its own is a blessing. Most of us often overlook these things and have even seen it as being normal. But it is not, it's worth being grateful for, because diem actually slept the same way you did yesternyt, and didn't wake up like you did this morning. So, I'm grateful for life, I'm grateful for this new day even though I don't know what it holds for me yet, still I'm grateful.

Secondly is family, yeah. Family is everything, to me, it is. They've been my backbone for the longest and they are one of the reasons why I'm even here writing this, they didn't let go when a host of others did, they held on to hope and stood talk for me. They carried my burdens, prayed for me, held me, believed in me and .... They did a lot for me that even words won't be enough to comprehend, I may not say it everyday, but I love them...deeply.

Also, talk of my health, I value it so much and I hold it dear. I know better and I can tell you for free what it means to not have good health. I've had my own fair share of experiences, so I know what it means to eventually be able to live life just like every other person without having to think about another surgery, drugs, injections, hospital transfers and all of that... So no matter how life turns out to be, my health is one thing I will always be grateful for.

I think it won't be wise of me to not mention my friends. Even though I have few of them, I have a lot of people I talk to, I'm the free and playful type so most people believe I keep many friends, but it's not true, I'm careful when it comes to that, but what I do is categorize them... Some are just colleagues, some neighbors....and the likes. To make it to my friend list ain't easy, so I'm grateful for the few friends that I have. They check in on me and I do the same too, they understand me so well, my silence, my mood swings and all....they understand it all, and I don't take them for granted.

Another thing is my present situation, yes... It's alright part of my blessings. Even though it's not palatable and I'm not where I imagined or would have loved to be, still I'm grateful. And I believe that things will definitely turn around for my good, I don't know how, but I trust that it will.

I think I will have to put a full stop here because the list goes on and on, and hymn in the SS&S hymn book says, "count your blessings name them one by one, count your blessings see what God has done, count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done....."

I've counted mine and in all honesty, I'm surprised at it all, because even with the situation of things I still have a lot of reasons and things to be grateful for.
