Count your blessing

One thing that I normally forget during a difficult situation is to realize how have I been lucky and blessed throughout the storybook that notes all my steps in this fragile Earth. If I come to that thought of thinking my blessing I normally become smiling and admit that yes that's true. To have friends that we can ask for help, to have a coffee break, to gain opportunity to study far from home, to have been able to live until now, to have a very kind supervisors, to have invitation for interview, to have a good score of test, to have responses from prospective professors, to receive an allowance, to get a nice flat-screen monitor, to have a wonderful girlfriend ;), to be in a bad situation, to get an abstract rejected, to get a not fortunate email, to face difficulties in thesis, to feel the cold in winter,..., etc are uncountable blessing.


Count your blessing is a sunday school song that is used to make children eager to share testimonies to others. But this too applies to everyone, doesn't it? We need to count the blessing and come to share it. Does uncountable blessing lead to uncountable testimonies? Then the time is not enough in a fellowship to give space for testimony if that happens. Hahaha, we can use blog otherwise. This is also a kind of testimony. Isn't it?
