Believe. And Count Your Blessings.

Always be Thankful.

“What if you gave someone a gift, and they neglected to thank you for it - would you be likely to give them another? Life is the same way. In order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have.”

-- Ralph Marston

Believe. Believe. And Believe.

I know I myself, and probably many people in general have bored you to death with this phrase, but these past few weeks have proven to me that I should BELIEVE in it and in myself more than ever. Things are going on in my life and my head in ways I cannot even begin to describe. Thoughts that never would have crossed my mind have been breaking into me, causing me to think and evaluate everything I have or have done up until this point. Well, maybe not as serious as it sounds...

More than often I am the one who always forget to be happy and content where I am. Forgetting to do so does not mean I don't strive to become better, but I just need to know that I am doing the right thing, and as long as I know and believe in myself, I will be able to accelerate. Most of us have that invisible string that holds us to the ground, or that one person who never stop telling us we cannot do what we were set to do. But no matter what holds you back, YOU yourself have to be stronger. YOU have to BELIEVE that you have all the abilities to do it. Along with the RESOURCES, you are ready to do and achieve whatever it is that you set out to do.

Resources here means BLESSINGS.

Count Your Blessings.

I know each of us has different beliefs religion wise, and I do respect your choices. With that being said, "Count Your Blessings" does not mean you have to believe in a certain God to thank Him or Her, or believe in any at all for that matter. It just means, in simpler words, "be thankful for what you have been given." The people you have met, the opportunities you have experienced, the relationships you have built, along with your establishments, come together to form your LIFE. They are the resources you have to make your wildest dreams come true. So, treasure them. This may sounds like a cliche, but I do wake up every morning feeling grateful, for everything, especially for the people who are in my life. Almost all of them have left different remarks that helps shaped me who I am today.

Life is hard... (and it will only gets harder through time). But if you know how to believe and be thankful, you will be able to overcome almost everything, and that's guaranteed. Don't believe me? TRY!

“Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.”

-- Lao Tzu
