Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings

About Thinking
I think I more of a planner than thinker. I am lazy to think. That's why when it comes to IQ tests, I just hate it.
With the sweltering weather lately, it is even worse to think. Things are done as if by routine and I'm beginning to lose the zest for life! I wish for a cooler weather, desperately.
As such, a lot of my decisions can seem quite rash to some people. That's why some people say that i have bad relationship skills.
As I lay on the sofa and drifted in and out of a rather nice doze, I found myself trying hard to think about matters on hand. A bit of meditating according to Marie Callas' instructions certainly helps. Feel more relieved now.
Do you know when I heard of those big verses from some ancient philosophers, somehow I pity them more than admire. They verses are thousands years old however i feel they really do not have answers to their problems. Good thing is that they really thought hard. Better than me at least.
Just because I don’t think, doesn’t mean I’m stupid. Just that I know better than to think that thinking solves anything. Right?
Sorry for this bitching post...

Your Born Gift
You and me sure receive gifts before in a lifetime. What is a gift? It is something that is given for free and to express someone's gratitude for you...there is nothing to be exchanged. It is given intentionally for some reasons.
For us humans, normally we give gifts on special occasions or for special someones. When we talk about occasions, gifts are given on birthdays, graduation, weddings, anniversaries and many more. But there are times that we give gifts for no special reason, we just like to give.
I always remember times when I was dating, I like to buy them some little gifts to show my appreciate for their care. There is nothing to expect from this. It was just a pity that non of the r/s turns out well.
Every mooncake festival, Xmas, chinese new years, I gift my parents too. No reason, I simply want to give them something. All people have the tendency to do that, right?
When we are born, we are showered with some form of natural gift from Heaven. This are all gifts. There is a skill that we personally possess. You know what skill that is in you! Remember to use your gift wisely, use it to succeed and not to ruin your life.
