I wrote this last year when I blogged for my school. I decided I needed a reminder of it this year too. So with a few changes here it is...
As we all know, life sometimes gets a little overwhelming. The smallest things start to really irritate us and bigger things are just pain to have to deal with. For me, it’s things like my full hamper of dirty clothes, having a lot of homework or my computer being a little slow. They may sound silly to you, but on a hard day, these are the things I get frustrated with. However, this time when I was beginning to get irritated, I realized that I to be thankful for those things. Here are some of the things that irritate me and what I have discovered about them. So, I am thankful for:
Having a hamper full of dirty clothes because I have clothes to wear. I can pick and choose what I wear every day. A day never goes by that go without clothes.
Having a lot of homework and studying to do because I get to go to school to further my dreams. I attend a university with a great nursing program that is going to train me to be an amazing nurse.
My computer being slow because I am blessed enough to have one. Not everyone can use facebook, do schoolwork, or blog whenever they want.
My old sweatshirt with a rip in it because it keeps me warm.
The parking spot the farthest away because I have two working legs and I can walk. I have a vehicle.
Not having enough time to call the people back who leave me messages because I have friends and family who love me and want to hear from me. They encourage me and stand by me.
My alarm that goes off too early for my liking because it means I am alive. I get to do life again each day.
