13 things to be grateful for
Why 13? Because it is said that it is not a lucky number. But it should be. Things only happen when you believe in them, you give them power. So let's make 13 a lucky number.
Why should you be grateful for? Ask yourself this everyday and don't feel like a victim, feel like a champion because anything that happens good or bad in your life teaches you a valuable lesson about yourself.
1. Feelings- Be grateful that you have a heart and that you can feel all the emotions; that is what it means to be alive: to feel happiness, joy, peace, love, comfort but also their opposites.
2. The Sun- for a few mornings I have been freezing so I am so grateful for the Sun. I love the Sun. It gives us free light and heat and loves us unconditionally because it doesn't kill anyone...not even the bad guys. ( long exposures are known to cause skin cancer so do not over do it)
3. The 5 senses- maybe some people can't see, hear, or speak, some are paralized and can't feel and some can't smell or taste so if you can do all these things be grateful for them and don't take them for granted
4. Water- you can drink it. You should drink it, at least 2 liters a day. You can take a bath in it, swim in it, wash clothes, dishes etc. Water even has feelings and can heal you.
5. Air- without it you're dead. And I so miss it right now because I can't breathe through my nose because of my cold :( But air is great. And wind...
6. Earth- our home sweet home. We live on it, plants grow out of it. You know. All these things we don't think about.
7. Fire- thank you smart cave man that discovered fire. :) You're the boss.
8. Music- does this need any explanation? I believe not. Music is a blessing. God created a choir of Angels espacially for that.
9. The internet- let's face it....information is fast these days. We don't need to travel to other countries to find rare books for information. Just go online and everything is just a click away.
10. Electricity- imagine a world without it. :)) I think most people would jump off a cliff. Businesses ruined, no tv, internet, telephones. Maybe that is the Apocalipse... Total Blackout.
11. People- Yeah, yeah. I always say that I don't like people....but I actually do like some of them a lot. People are great when they are being themselves. So fun to be around them. They create wonderful things, they are good friends. And yeah....we are all connected.
12. Animals- They were created before us. They are great. I love cats. :))
13. Because you can read and write. Be grateful for that. Not all the persons in the world are literate. You can read so many wonderful things and write many stories and interesting things ( like me). haha.
So be grateful and stop taking people or things for granted. The Creation is perfect, just open your eyes... :)
Love, peace, health!

There are times in life when we get so overwhelmed with emotions that it is hard to see the brighter side and that is when it is most important to see things that you're grateful for.
