as i took a cab home earlier, i reflected on the day's happenings (shit at work, as usual) and realised that i have so many things to be thankful for today.

and then i think again, i'm thankful for everyday, not just today.

i read somewhere that when you're grateful for things, big things, little things, you become happier and everything just becomes better. i agree. it's true.

i often thought about a year ago post-break up me, constantly finding things to do, having the need to go out every weekend otherwise i'll feel so lonely and sad. but luckily for family and friends which i am very thankful for, that phase quickly passed and fast forward to right now, it's a stark contrast - i love being alone at home, not having to go out and do things to keep myself occupied all the time. i love being alone and just be with myself. it's

they also say to lead a happier life, be happy and focus on what you have instead of constantly worrying about what you don't have. i may not have everything, but that's okay. i don't let it get to me. well i try, from time to time.

i'm so happy with where i am and what i have that some days my heart is so full, i just think about how thankful i am, and nothing else.

and when i absolutely feel like tossing in the towel or when i get too emotional about something, i tell myself not to sweat the small stuff. God is in control and He has a plan for me (and you).

have a little faith, if not a lot of it. be thankful.

xoxo
