"Always have an attitude of gratitude. Let us choose to see life through the eyes of appreciativeness. Because a grateful heart is a magnet of miracles."

Thanks God its Friday! The most awaited day of almost everyone. The last day of weekdays. Yey!

As part of my month's goals, this article will talk about gratefulness and goofiness.

As I am writing this, I am already thinking about the things that I should give thanks about. Well, it is not really that hard because I have so many things to be grateful with.

However, before we proceed, let us first know the importance of giving thanks. And when should we give thanks?

Why do we need to give thanks?

• Personally, I don't think that I still have to explain this. However, I will still give my insights about this question. Giving thanks is acknowledging God's blessings into our life. When we give thanks, we usually shift our focus from negative to positive side of life. Not everyone is privilege enough to have the things that we are currently enjoying and taking for granted. It may not be a requirement but it is a must for me. Aside from that, I am a strong believer that a grateful heart attracts miracles in life.

When should we give thanks?

• Everyday. Giving thanks should be given everyday. Not only when we receive the things that we wanted and whenever life is good. Isn't it more helpful if we choose to sing and dance while walking in the midst of dark valley? We have to remember to give thanks to God not because life is good, but because He is good.

I hope I was able to answer those two questions clearly and with sense.

Anyways, let's move forward and list down the things that I am grateful with today.

• Life

As what I have said, not everyone have the privilege to enjoy the things that we have. And one of those is life itself. Therefore, if you are still breathing, alive and kicking, don't forget to give thansk to God.

• New learnings

One of my agenda this month is to gain new learnings especially in freelancing and I am slowly having it. I am glad that I got the chance to join a free training orientation this evening. Even if it is just an orientation, I was still able to learn something and clarify things about this career.

• I virtually met my students

I don't think that I have shared this with you guys but I am currently having my field study 1 and 2 this semester. I already coordinate with my RT and I am so happy because she is so approachable and kind. Being called "teacher" by your student is really fulfilling.

Closing Thought

Of course, I still have a lot of things to be grateful about. It includes the foods, shelter, family and clothes. Every little things deserves appreciation. And I am slowly exercising to have an attitude of gratitude because I aim to attract miracles.

Anyways, I'll be doing a lot of things tomorrow and I need to sleep early tonight. So I guess, that would be all for tonight.
