Counting Your Blessing

Good God.. It's Totally been more than a month since I last write about anything. In this past months, my life seems like a blur to me even I can't seem to take a deep breath and relax like I was used to - back in the unemployment day. Not that I complained about it, but it's just such a drastic change from my life that I seem to become used to it first.


I'm just writing this in memory of the so-called 'tragedy' in Jakarta last night, where everywhere is flooding and traffic jam is affecting all people in all area in Jakarta. And I'm counting my blessing during such moment because, no matter how far my home is, I, seems to be one of the working persons in my area to be home early without getting into any traffic at all.

Well, I realized that sometimes, in our daily activities, we seemed to forget to count our blessing each day. With every sunlight that comes down to remind us that we are living another day. With every breath we take, no matter how polluted it is, we are reminded that we are still alive. With every problem in the office we're facing, we are reminded of we, at least, still have income to be spend each month. And many more things that seems insignificant, but we are forget to count the blessing in our life, no matter how difficult it is.

So with this writing, I want to count today's blessing that I, have woken up this morning with a soft and gentle caress of sunlight on my face, have a breakfast without having to think about where to find it, going to office with a public transportation instead of walking, and be at office with an air con even though sometimes the air is too hot to even feel the cold breeze. But at least, I'm enjoying my life, and I'm counting my blessing that God has given me. At least I also still have friends out there, whom though we are rarely meet, but we're still in contact with one another.

So... Have you count your blessing today?

Regards,

Shin
