It's way past my bedtime but i just feel like writing this down. I came across an ayat from Quran that sounds something like (excuse me, my bad) 'Even if you try to list all the things you're blessed with, you still couldn't name it all'.
Every single day i think of things i'm grateful of, whenever i walk from the LRT station to my car. Because i'm most likely real tired from that point, and i do try to keep my spirits up. Talking to myself, i know Allah SWT is listening that I, as a human full with flaws are trying bit by bit to be better. To one day stop complaining about how hard i think my life is, and focus more on what i'm blessed with. So here is the list:
- I'm thankful for the great state of health Allah has blessed me and my family with.
- I'm thankful because of #1, Allah has granted me a healthy pregnancy so far.
- I'm thankful all my senses (hearing, seeing, tasting, smelling, thinking) works just well.
- I'm thankful Allah has granted me & husband stable careers with great benefits, despite challenges we face in our tasks daily. We've been able to buy houses (more to come soon Insya Allah), cars, provide some allocation for our families respectively, enjoy our pay with holidays and food.. and able to shop to our hearts' content for this baby.
- I'm thankful Allah has fated me with my husband - most patient, funny, charming, special, loving :)
- I'm thankful Allah tests me with hardships at work and life, so that i always remember to keep my feet firmly on the ground and remember nothing lasts forever.
- I'm thankful i'm surrounded with great friends who are also very experienced in my line of work.
- I'm thankful my loved ones and I are safe in our travels every single day
- I'm thankful Allah has always reminded me to live life modestly. I do spend, yes, but i'm able to say those were my needs, not wants.
