Do You Count Your Blessings?

Christmas card

I am counting the positive happenings in my life more than the negative ones. Though the negative ones are not to be ignored. The reverse gear of our car was not functioning well today when I was collected by my husband from work. I was and still am glad we arrived home safely. Tomorrow, it will be send to the garage for repair. My best friend offered me to bring me to work and collect me after that if I need her. I just have to send a message to her and she will come. I am grateful for that offer. She is always there when I need her. Another blessing I got, was the Christmas card that I received yesterday. Thank you Valerie for sending me the beautiful greetings from thousand miles across the ocean. I love it.[i][/i] There are lots of people I am thankful for and one of those are you, my fellow mylotters. I am grateful to be here with you and reading your posts. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!!! I hope you have a wonderful celebration. Take care always.

The car was not fixed as it was very expensive for letting it repair. We bought a new one and it will come next week. Thank you.

I always keep giving thanks for all the blessings I have received. There have been a lot of negative experiences too but I believe that is just part of life. I don't concentrate too much on that. There is a lot of good to look forward to.

Blessings are connected to love, and to our giving thanks, to life, and to God too. Life goes on as a journey through love, and when we count the blessings bestowed on us by life, love, and God, and by others, as well, we can see the face of God smiling a blessing for us in them too, and we should be thankful whenever we see God's hand playing itself out in our lives, like this too.

There are lots to be thankful for. We should always count the blessings we get. I was reminded during college, my Humanities professor would always say in his class, "count your blessings, but not your frustrations".
