Stop Taking Life For Granted

HEY GUYS!!!

How are you all?Okay I know i already wrote a blog that talks about Being Grateful but today, i was thinking hard about my life and lately it just seems everything is going the opposite direction of what i have planned and i've been a little down and so been mumbling to myself and stuff.

I was on the bus today and this guy on a wheelchair pushed himself on the bus and he was trying to park himself in the zone allocated for wheelchair users and he struggled a lot but he got there in the end. I thought to myself "that dude must go through this from when he wakes up in the morning till when he's ready to go to bed"- all this time, by the way, his friend or brother was next to him waiting for him to need his help but i think he's one of those people who prefer not to be treated like they can't do anything by themselves

It dawned on me that whilst i was grumbling and crying and letting things get to me, i forgot that i woke up this morning and, unlike the guy in the wheelchair, i got up from bed-easily- i didn't wake up with a disability

I realised that ALL my body parts are still 100% functioning, i can talk, i can sing, i can see, i can hear, i can do everything i need to do.

I remembered that no matter what my situation is, i have friends and family who still care about me and will do their best to always have my back

I have clothes to wear, shoes to even match them!!

I have a roof above my head- i go home to bed

There are people i know who, this year, have either lost parts of their bodies or their lives. I know students who have had to drop out of University because their parents just can't afford it. I know about people who have to keep moving from a friend's house to another's flat. I've heard about people who go to fast food joints or resaurants at the end of a day to ask for left overs to feed on...i could go on forever about it

The way i see it, stop noticing what you don't have- feel blessed for what you have. No matter what it is you're going through, there are people out there going through worse...This may shock you but i am writing this blog to encourage myself too. The fact that you're still breathing just means there's ALWAYS hope.

From today, LOVE every second you get to breathe one more time because it's precious- the value of your life is MUCH bigger than the weight of your problems.

TILL NEXT TIME!!!
