If you sit down and
clear your mind and stop and think about what blessings you have in
your life and aim to list 5 of them and you will undoubtedly
start thinking about what you have in life you will be able to list a
whole lot more than just 5. While you may think that you haven’t
anything to be thankful for, you will find if you think about it you
are wrong, perhaps for you it’s the sound of your grandchild or
child’s laughter and joy at spending time with you, it could be an
unexpected phone call from a friend, lover, son, daughter, mother or
father, just to say hi, sitting down to a family meal and swapping
stories about your day went.
All these are the little joys of life
the ones that make life special and meaningful and which thanks
should be said, they are the true blessings, it isn’t about how
much money you have in the bank, how big your wardrobe is, having the
latest gadgets, or that new car.
All of these things are merely
material possessions and while they may bring a smile to our face and
make us feel good they are not true blessings, sure it feels good be
financially secure but if you aren’t then it doesn’t mean that
you aren’t rich in many other ways. In fact many people who are on
the bread line are very often richer and are able to count many more
blessings than those with a huge bank account.
