I have a lot in life to be
thankful for.. that’s not to say.. I don’t have my fair share of problems!! But
when I count my blessings, their magnitude makes the bag of problems seem measly!!
First of all… ‘Thank you’ to all
you lovely readers who visit me here in blog land. When I started this blog in
Jan 2009, it was a way to document the décor happenings in my home. Today I’m
thankful to some awesome friends I’ve made via blogger, to some amazing readers
who trust me with the queries and emails, who share their homes and their lives
with me. I’m truly touched and honoured. So thank you… for making every minute I
spend on blogger worth while.
I’m thankful for amazing family
& friends who understands my OCD (Obsessive Cleaning Disorder), and who
often give me the opportunity to fulfil my little décor dreams *smiles*… Who
appreciate my little doings along the way, and often give me celebrity status
*grins*
I’m so grateful that God made
peacocks, and lotus’, roses, and daffodils, sunshines and twinkling stars that
look like fairy lights. The list here is endless…, so I’ll only mention the
gift of colour… that makes everything so beautiful. Oh.. and how did He manage
to give us the miracle of the mountains, the seas, the valleys, the hills, the
green patches, the deserts *sigh*.. another endless list!!
Two days in the emergency section
and nearly spending two weeks next to my Gran in hospital. I’m thankful that we
found my Gran on 23rd Dec in hospital and that she is recovering..
Thankful for this opportunity and for the realisation that the difference
between life & death is less than a second… I’ve been procrastinating for
two or three years now… and finally realised that I must – must fulfil my dream
project in 2012. I’m totally running out of time!! And am thankful for the
bunch of friends who’ve agreed to hold my hand.
I truly have a lot more to be
thankful for.. And I’m sure you do too… So go on.. do a little ‘Gratitude’
post.. and join in this series, open till 1st February, 2011
Hope your gran recovers soon. That's a sweet post. Will try to link in.
