Life is good and I am grateful!

Last Christmas, I bought a notebook/journal from my ward auction party. I like hand made stuff so I paid $ 35.00 for it. Also it was for a good cause to help out unfortunate families around the areas to have food for the holiday.
I wasn't sure about what to use my little notebook for as I already have another journal where I record some of my thoughts. So I decided I would record my everyday blessings in it; the ones that often go unnoticed or taken for granted. As I go back to read it sometimes, I realize that I am more blessed than I usually think. Yes, I count my many blessings!
Here are 10 (few of the many I have written down for the last month):
  1. I officially received my Masters Degree. I did it!

  2. I am going to Hawaii for a one week vacation.

  3. I became a new aunt (born on Aug 19). My niece's name is Dialy Fanaperana

  4. My family! they are always there for me despite the fact that they are thousands of miles away.

  5. I have two wonderful roommates. Believe me, we never fight!

  6. One of my friends got hit by a truck, but survived.
  7. I am healthy: I have the strength and energy to do the things that I like.

  8. I have a reliable car which makes it so easy to get around.

  9. The ability to believe in God and his son Jesus Christ.

  10. I have a place to stay and food to eat.

My life is pretty darn good! La vie est belle for me.
