What are you genuinely thankful for? I have learnt the more grateful we are, the more grace follows. What you appreciate in life appreciates, what if the only thing in your life tomorrow are the things you express gratitude for today? You may not be where you want to be in life, finances may not be in the right place, relationships maybe in shambles but you woke up today, so start your day by counting your blessings no matter how little because, what you deem meaningless might be someone else’s prayer.
In the
spirit of thanksgiving there are a lot of things I am thankful for, however I am
particular about these three(3) things listed below. Do check out Eleven things I'm Thankful for
FAMILY
AND FRIENDS – I know it sounds cliché but truly what else do
we have to be grateful for if friends and family do not come first. I am truly grateful
for my family who has been with me through soft and hard moments and for the
new group of friends I made during my service year. I speak a lot about
friendship and rightful so, I appreciate my friends and new friends for their
support and standing by my side. I could go on and on about each of them, how
wonderful they complement me in various ways. Check out Get to know me through my Friends
HEALTH –
I
am thankful for health especially during this pandemic of COVID-19, despite me
being up and about with work and life, I never caught the virus. It hit me
middle of the year when I had a heart episode, called my Boss Madam and took a
week to rest, I am really grateful to God the situation did not escalate and it
was permanently contained. Health is wealth.
Moving on
to this look, remember when I mentioned on HERE
I was gifted Ankara prints which I was yet to sew and style? Well, this is one
of them, the picture didn’t really do justice to the outfit but it is indeed a
beautiful print in reality. So, I used a different tailor for this style, she
executed, however, I wished she did put more attention to details.
Talk to you in my next post, be you, be safe, be
kind, stay blessed and remain humble.
