Counting My Blessings : Part 3

     After a few difficult days, where I made a few mistakes, I am back with the third part of Counting My Blessings.

1. I am grateful for my knowledge of right against wrong.

2. I am grateful that I am always trying to improve.

(Whoever put these traits in my nature, did me a great favour.)

3. I am grateful for my backbone that helps me sit straight.

4. I am grateful for my clothes that help me cover my body and the warmer clothes that I wear in winters.

5. I am grateful for my parents who protect me against all hardships of the world.

6. I am grateful that I have roof above my head.

7. I am grateful for my sister who has helped me a lot throughout my life. She has helped me in my studies, my projects and once saved me from my mother's anger. She even bought me a laptop, my wireless earphones and is now buying me a phone.

(Thank you, Sisi!) 

8. I am grateful for the stole(dupatta) my sister gifted me today.

9. I am grateful for my birthday that makes me the happiest person on this planet.

10. I am grateful for being able to write this blog.

     While writing this part, I had the feeling that most people would find these blessings silly. But that's the point, well, not to find me silly, but that there are so many smaller blessings in our lives, that make life easier for us but we totally ignore them. The sun, the moon and being alive are all our blessings. 

     They Sun is everyone's. Not like just the rich can afford it. That's what we, the not so privileged, have to remind ourselves, on a daily basis.

Counting My Blessings : Part 1

They say it helps, so, here I am trying.

     They say, "Count your blessings to feel better. Show gratitude.". So, I am starting this new blog series, "Counting My blessings", where I'll write 10 things I am grateful for in each blog, hopefully, not repeating any. This is the first one and here I go.

1. I am grateful for my life.

2. I am grateful that I am 24 years old and still alive and breathing.

3. I am healthy.

4. I am happy that I have a full functional body.

5. I am grateful that I have eyes to see the world.

6. I am grateful to have ears that help me listen to music, that I love so much.

7. I am grateful that I have strong teeth that help me eat anything I want.

8. I am grateful for me legs that help me go anywhere I want to and can.

9. I am grateful for my hands that allows me to hold this phone.

10. I am grateful for my fingers that are typing into this blog, everything I am thinking.

     I know I kept it a bit general and easy. It's the first blog and I wanted to keep it light Moreover, we are often so busy by the other, more complicated life problems, that we forget about the smaller things. But I happen to be a Mathematics student and Math says that life is all about balance. So, I keep this series balanced as long as I can and hope to delve into deeper blessings slowly too. 

     See you again in my next blog. Till then, take care, my sunflowers!🌻

P. S., I write blogs because I am a very lonely person. If you are reading this blog, either write a comment or send me an email. I shall reply as soon as possible.
