10 Things I Am Thankful For
(I got tagged by Queennie)

People often complain of what is not present. We often dwell on things we don’t have. Well, for a change I hope we can (even for a while) think of the great things we have. Hope you would share your thoughts too guys…

1. I am thankful for each day I’m alive. Especially back when I got REALLY sick on New Year’s Day this year… Back then, I really thought I might die. So yeah, I’m thankful I’m still alive.

2. I am thankful for being blessed with a beautiful family. They’re beautiful inside and out. They’re amazing and I love them so much.

3. I am also thankful for my true friends. They’ve been with me through thick and thin–through my bad days and not just my good ones. They support me, they understand me, and they make me happy. I hope I do the same for them

4. I am thankful for my two best friends, especially my first real best friend. Not that the second is less appreciated or anything… ;p I used to say I don’t like the term best friend but there really is one or two people you can’t help but be honest with and share everything with.

5. I am thankful for my health! I may be skinny-looking but I tell ya, I’m healthy! Thanks to being brought up by my family as a healthy eater. I love veggies, I love fruits, juices, cheeses, and meats/fowls that aren’t greasy. But I do love eating a couple of sweets here and then. But hey, it’s all in moderation

6. I am thankful for Herbalife! Seriously. It saved my family, both financially and health-wise. Thanks to their products, we are living healthier, no stress, we’re much happier, not much tension anymore, no more worries, and we know that Herbalife can not only give us health but also wealth!

7. I am thankful for my imperfections. I believe those make me who I am. “Unique just like everyone else” is quite paradoxical–nobody is ever the same. I learned never to be jealous, because I know that God made me this way and has given me the blessings I deserve and experiences I need to learn.

8. I am thankful for my job. It’s a good one, the pay is alright, and the workload isn’t always that bad. I’m quite enjoying myself and I’m getting the hang of it. The people aren’t so bad either… I’m quiet around them because, well, I’m still trying to get used to them (even if I’ve been here for about 8 months now).

9. I’m thankful for my God-given talents. I don’t have to enumerate what they are, but I’m thankful I can do those things that other people would kill to just be able to do for a day. I may sometimes feel the same way about others’ talents, but that’s what makes all of us special anyway

10. I am thankful for finishing my education. Not everybody gets this privilege, especially because education costs a lot of money. I’m glad I did well and graduated on time despite the fact that I didn’t really try so hard. I know I could’ve done better during the latter part (esp. in high school and some parts of college), but I did enjoy (most of) my years as a student. I earned friends and experiences along the way as well!

So what are YOU thankful for?
