Feeling blessed

When I woke up today, I realized that I am very, very blessed.

It's the little things we have to appreciate to enjoy every single day of our life and be happy.

I thought that I am pretty blessed to be alive, healthy, with a roof above my head and a big room I have for my own as my private space. I am blessed that I have a family which is happy and which loves me for who I am. I am blessed that there is enough food in our fringe and enough water to drink. I feel so blessed because I had the chance to learn things in school and got education. I am blessed because I have wonderful friends I love so much and who I can trust in anything and laugh with about everything. 

I am blessed because I have enough money to buy luxus goodies like clothes and books, DVD's, make-up and much more things we couldn't imagine living without.

I love so many things that seem to be taken by granted nowadays...

I feel blessed when the sun shines in my face or when the rain drops against my window while I sit inside and watch a candle burning. 

I love it when I watch an amazing movie or when I wear a new outfit for the first time.

I love smiling at strangers and get a smile back. I love hugging friends and being cuddled up in bed all sunday long. I love listening to my favorite song coming up on the radio and singing the lyrics totally wrong but very loud. 

I love discovering new cities and countries, I love seeing different parts of this amazing world. 

I love acting absolutely ridiculous and laughing about bad jokes, just being my natural self.

I love being at the seaside, feeling the summer breeze on my skin and not caring about anything in the world. 

I love late night talks and people who were strangers about a minute ago but who are your friends now because they just complete and understand you.

I love the taste of fresh strawberries and dark chocolate, the smell of fresh coffee and white roses. I love dancing around like nobody is watching and singing like nobody can hear me.

I love wearing my favorite perfume and chilling in jogging clothes all saturday long.

I love having breakfast at my favorite café on sundays or watching the sun rise at 5 am.

I feel happy while reading a book for the first time and reading it over again because it was so good. 

It's the little things that make you happy you are alive - don't forget: living is the rarest thing in the world, most people only exist...

So thank god or whoever every.single.day for the amazing life you have and be grateful. Always. It's not happiness that makes us grateful but gratefulness that makes us happy. So if we appreciate every single little thing in our life that makes us smile, we'll be happier than we could have ever imagined. 

Love yourself, love your life and it will love you right back.

Just stay positive, focus on the great things and right people in your life and ignore the shitty ones. 

You attract what you are thinking of, so don't pay any attention to negative bullshit but always focus on things that make you feel thankful and happy.
