I can't complain much about this life. Sure I'm love-less but I am constantly asked to be their girl. Sure I'm an insomiac but I have been very productive because of it. I have things that I don't like in my life but overall, I still feel blessed. I'm doing well career-wise. I may have a few sickness but I'm still considered very healthy. Sometimes, oh well, most of the time, I wish I have more money but don't we all? And come to think of it, I still live comfortably. I'm just used to living a much more comfortable lifestyle than what I have right now but I get by. And I can still afford some of the luxuries that I used to always have and I appreciate them more than ever. I have a few friends, make that a lot of friends and they are all "quality" friends. It's like everyone of them is my bestfriend and I always get to talk to them. My family is doing quite well also. We have problems but overall, we are very well. :)
I have worries but they're all so insignificant actually. I have so much more to be thankful for more than anything else. I'm thankful that I work with co-workers that've become such good friends of mine. We're all like siblings covering each other's asses when something goes wrong and helping each other get through difficult times. I'm thankful that I have a very able and understanding boss and that I am also good friends with him.
I'm grateful for myself for always choosing to be strong despite the many odd times. Look at me. I'm only 101 lbs. but I can complete a 10K run with a brimming smile on my face. I have the discipline to stay away from sweets when the nutritionist said so. I have the initiative to research on eating and living healthy and apply my learnings everyday. I have also inspired others to take care of themselves like I do and to take care of the place that we live in. I stayed being a person with an open-mind and an understanding heart that my friends have become comfortable being with. I have also helped enable individuals to be who they want to be and all these also shaped me to be a kinder and stronger person. Stong enough to stick to my moral values and kind enough to accept and understand those who lives an alternative way of life.
I may not be earning as much as I did before but I get by. I have a housemate who would cover the house rent whenever my budget falls short (which is always). My mom would also lend money whenever I need 911. And my dear person... he's the biggest blessing I have right now. He still tolerates my expensive tastes which I love especially when the shopaholic-rehab program gets too tough. He knows me. He understands me. He accepts me; in fact, he loves me. My bestfriend since high school.. 14 years have passed, we aged but we're still the same teenagers who still have each other's back - good or bad.
Overflowing it is. Overflowing with blessings. I have so many worries but like I said, insignificant. I have so many blessings to be thankful for. I don't have money but I have someone that can help get through it. I maybe stuck in an awful environment but I have the backbone to stay dignified in the middle of it. I maybe a tiny person but my personality would scream "you can't mess with me". For every downside of my life, there is always something there that would balance it out if not, overpower it. It all relies on how I choose because in this life, we always have options. You just have to believe in it. :)
