True Blessings

Most people do not recognise a true blessing because there is no money involved.

We live in a world today where money has become the benchmark for measuring everything. The person who has lots of it is highly respected and regarded by our society as the most successful above everybody else, even if he is a fool.

It is pushing everybody over the cliff to work hard and find money so he too can be recognised and respected. I guess the famous American psychologist, Abraham Masloc was right after all. Every human being has a burning desire inside him,   which is the need to want and command respect from everybody.
Because of this behaviour, we usually do not realise or appreciate the true blessings we have each day right before our eyes, until we lose it.
For some of you, your true blessing is the breadth of life you have right now giving to you by God each day. You have been in and out of the hospital over the past few years continuously. Battling some strange illness the doctors can't even find answers to yet.
But you are still alive today, yet you place your career above your life.
Why don't you thank God for life instead.

Some of you, your true blessing is in the good family support system you have that you don't see or value much. You have got a loving husband or wife that adores you like crazy, but you always measure his or her lovely dedication for weakness. You'll never find another person like him or her if you don't wise up fast and start being appreciative.  It could also be the unspoken love of your friend, mother, father, sister, brother, grandparents or even the love of your children.

We always have a choice between deciding what we want to stay committed and dedicated to. I just hope you don't let the love of money or your crazy ambition  over crowd your common sense to see that there are other important things that need your attention too.

Money, success, ambition, targets, aims and goals are really great to aspire to achieve or have them but it should not blind you to lose sight of the little blessings that are already in your life.

Let the lessons of this Corona virus and the quarantine period  humble you a little.

Everything Is Temporary

Corona Virus has proved that everything around us is so temporary. Things that our lives revolved around...work, gym, malls, movies and other social activities have all gone for a toss. These were things which used to occupy our time and attention virtually everyday, so much that we neglected what was most important to us in the first place. We are learning to live without them now, as our only option these days, is to stay indoors to keep ourselves safe. It is teaching us all  one thing,  that in the end, our home and families really matter. They are our point of safety in difficult times like these. So should this crisis come to an end, which will be very soon,   do know where your priorities lie henceforth. It is not in your work, or your insatiable ambitions. It is with your family.

Looking for Mr. Right And Mrs. Right

Any man who  tolerates all your nonsense as a woman and still finds you  perfect in his own eyes is your Mr. Right Likewise, any woman who tolerates all your stupidity as a man, and yet is able to submit under your authority as a man and love you is the Mrs. Right. No man or woman will check out all your boxes of being perfect or not a perfect match. Understand this one truth!!!! Here's a little revelation for us all to understand; there can be no decent woman or man just for only you. There are millions of decent people out there, just that they may not be that stunning model of a woman you're looking for or the man with six packs with a full beard. The moment you think of yourself too important to be in a different league than any other person just because you are wearing some designer dresses and suits and so you start rejecting suitors who you think are beneath your overrated standards, remember quickly that we all have our flaws. To help you reflect on this better, ...

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...
