always feel as if I am still 26 years old, but lately I am looking closer to that age once more. Thank you, dear God, for my healthy body and mind.

“The struggle of life is one of our greatest blessings. It makes us patient, sensitive, and Godlike. It teaches us that although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.” (Helen Keller)

Continuing to think about all my past and current blessings, I realize that many of them were achieved because I believed in my God-given talents, worked hard, and followed what I have thought was God’s calling for me. When I look at my life, I only focus on my triumphs, my prosperity. My life is not perfect, but it is mine, and I am content and happy. My latest blessing is to have found true love for a second time in my life. Soon I will start the next chapter in my life---a new marriage with a wonderful man.

Every day I wake up, I feel so blessed to be alive and have a new opportunity to explore life, to learn new things, to connect with new people, and ultimately to continue to live my life to the fullest. Life and Love are our BEST BLESSINGS, and they are 100% FREE if we happily open our hearts, minds, and souls to them.
