Be Grateful For Your Life, Everything Else Is A Bonus
Everyone needs to have a reminder of this:
Your life is a miracle. Your birth is a miracle. You + living = miracle.
You are a miracle.
Be grateful for living on this beautiful planet, in this beautiful world, and in this beautiful mindblowing present.
You live and everything else is a bonus.
The good weather: a bonus.
Your health: a bonus.
Your loved ones: each one of them is a bonus.
Your TV: a bonus.
Internet: a huge bonus.
Every book: a bonus.
Every person on this beautiful earth: a miracle.
Every person is extraordinary and special. There is not one person that is exactly the same, and never has been and never will be (except if we clone people at some point in the future).
You are special. Every person around you is special.
This is your miracle life. You live. You can choose how to live.
Be grateful for every small thing in your life because every bit of it is a bonus to your life.
The one piece of chocolate. The possibility to hear music. Music from Taylor Swift. Christmas. The joy of giving presents to your loved ones. Your car. Your phone. Electricity. The person operating your electricity.
Be grateful for it and you will never be unhappy.
Those are all presents to you and your life. Use it. Use your phone and the internet to help people. Use it to help yourself achieve success and happiness.
But don’t just think about it. Do it and say it!
Tell your loved ones that you love them. You don’t know how long you still have them.
Life is a present and a miracle. It also can be over really fast.
Pay attention to your present moment. Your surrounding.
Appreciate the current moment: you are sitting comfortably. I have a fluffy blanket currently wrapped around me.
Be grateful for everything and give back!
Say thanks to the world and the universe by giving back to others who have less or need your help. Be humble, and give back!
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.”
— Eckhart Tolle
