Every day till today I had been waking up to the morning sun rather casually, not realizing I have been a destiny's child...totally blessed.
Blessed with what, you may ask!
If one has a roof over the head, a loving husband who sincerely cares for you, has a family who is always there for you, a job which is enviable, true friends who love you for what you are, have finances in pretty decent shape, have time to pursue hobbies and interests and also a healthy body, mind and soul, you are by far, one of the most luckiest people on the surface of earth.
And if all the above describes me then bloody hell I am that blessed person!
So if you ask me, how many times till now had I realized and known that I was blessed with the gift....this precious gift of a truly wonderful life!
I rather shamefully confess, not many times in spite of the seemingly obvious answer.
And so I ask, how often do we realize the magnitude of what WE HAVE rather than what we DON'T HAVE? How often do we cherish the present and instead keep ruing and complaining of few things that happened in the past or fear what may not be there in our future.
If the answer is not many times then you are not alone....well, at least till now.
As now onwards, you may not have me for company on that dreadful boat sailing to nowhere land.
I must admit, it took a simple yet touching blog http://mywifesfightwithbreastcancer.com/blog/#.UsleX-L_m4I to open my eyes to the vision of what lay right in front of me but which I turned a blind eye to, till now.
And what a delightful sight to wake up to and knowing that I am so blessed. Life will have its ups and downs and thank god for that. But by being in the present and acknowledging that our life is the greatest gift of all....is the best realization one can have!
