I am Grateful Because

I got a tag from Carnation today asking what I am grateful for. Thank you so much Carnation for sharing this to me. There are lots of things that I am very much grateful for in this life.

1. i am able to wake up each day and witness HIS miracles and kindess.
2. i have wonderful and loving family who are the source of my strength.
3. we are expecting another bundle of joy arriving next year.
4. He always keeps us healthy and safe.
5. of trials and adverisities that makes us (me and my wife)strong and love each other more and more.

Let me know what are the things you are grateful for. I am sharing this tag with the following: The Pharaoh and The Gaijin, patadyong, Sendorero : Taong Ninja, am running around like a headless chicken, and sigbin.com.

How This Works:
1. Re-post the picture on your blog and pls. acknowledge where it came from. Kindly leave a comment on this post so I would know you’ve posted it.
2. Write down 5 things you are grateful for and the 5 bloggers you are tagging.
3. You may copy this or write your own quote regarding gratitude:

it's reminders like this that make me cling on the belief that there is someone bound to be your lifetime partner and there is a family waiting for you somewhere in time :) merry christmas :)

Inspiratorium

-- written by Max Ehrmann in the 1920s --

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons;
they are vexatious to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love,
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
