Thankful Thursday

Last weekend something happened that made me realize that life is indeed a blessing, and on top of that Ate Jho’s mom passed away …
Ever since I was young I have witnessed some family members pass away (though they lived far from us); but being a child, I must admit I wasn’t really that affected. However, as I grew older, I have come to appreciate what it means to have friends and family around us.
I am so thankful that God has given me the opportunity to enjoy other person’s presence, including the individuals in the different communities here in the internet. I am so thankful for having the opportunity to write this down and have this feeling that we are not alone.
God is always behind us, beside us, watching over us.
In spite of all that has happened, I still feel blessed.
And very much thankful for everything.
Thankful Thursday is hosted today by Laurel Wreath,

How true that is! God is always with us and I believe he ministers to our needs in many ways ~ ever over the Internet communities! Blessings to you this Christmas…

Yes, life is so precious and just being able to breathe (and see, touch, feel, laugh etc… ) is one big blessing from God.
Hope everyone is well out there Mai. Happy TT. And yes, I definitely love the picture you included here.
