Count Your Blessings......

The following is an anonymous interpretation which i thought i can share with everybody:
  • Think of it this way.If you live in a good home, have plenty to eat and can read, you are a member of a very select group. And if you have a good house, food, can read and have a computer, you are among the very elite.
  • If you woke up this morning with more health than illness...you are more fortunate than the million who will not survive this week.
  • If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation...you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
  • If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harrasment, arrest, torture, or death...you are fortunate, more than three billion people in the world can't.
  • If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep...yor are richer than 75% of this world.
  • If you have money in the bank, in your wallet and spare change in a dish someplace..you are among the top eight percent of the world's wealthy.
  • If your parents are still alive and still married..you are very rare.
  • If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful...you are blessed because the majority can..but most do not.
  • If you cant hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on shoulder..you are blessed because you can offer healing touch.
  • If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you, and furthermore, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.
  • Is'nt it better therefore, to just be grateful for whatever you have, rather than crib about what you don't??

i guess this is the most wonderful way to jumpstart your day..and looking forward for all the challenges that life throws at you.

TO ADAPT IS THE NEW NORMAL

Presently, the majority of us would be unaware of today's date and day. Such are the times. Each day is getting dragged monotonously, not only for those people who are not working from home but also for people who are doing meaningless (mostly) and stressful work from their homes. Right now, we are experiencing the most uncertain times in the history of mankind and merely ‘binge watching’ on Netflix won’t ease the pain of being confined to our homes 24*7. We are still looking at another month or 2 of lockdown ahead of us. So, how do we cope? I have come-up with a couple of ideas from my own experience of being isolated since last 2 months - 1. Stop ‘over-thinking’ & worrying. This will take us nowhere; rather it will make matters worse. How do we distract our minds then? I would suggest setting yourself in some sort of a routine in the weekdays (From Monday – Friday) – like getting up every morning at the same time and doing similar activities through out the day an...
