My Perfect Life

What would happen if I spare a few minutes everyday to write.. just anything in my mind? 

.

I thought my life was perfect. I really thought my life was perfect.

I have healthy parents.

I have big sister, big brother, little brother.

I have roof above me.

I don't need to worry what to wear, what to eat.

I have loving friends.

I am healthy.

I have a job.

I really thought my life was perfect.

Until I started to get all stressed out, and figured wow my life is everything but perfect.

I don't think I am ready to write on what makes my life isn't perfect here, but I guess just like everyone else there are simply problems everywhere.

How come I thought it was perfect? The problems existed since long time ago.

How come only now I see that it ain't perfect at all?

and it occurs to me that, I was always being very grateful with everything in my life. 

I am grateful I have healthy parents.

I am grateful I have big sister, big brother, little brother.

I am grateful I have roof above me.

I am grateful I don't need to worry what to wear, what to eat.

I am grateful I have loving friends.

I am grateful I am healthy.

I am grateful I have a job.

Despite all the flaws and the problems, I always tried to look at the positive side and be grateful for it.

That.. was the key of my perfect life.

So now why suddenly the realization?

Am I not being grateful anymore?

and the answer would be yes. 

Truthfully I was SO busy that I have not spent my time with God anymore. I was lost and was only focusing on the problems and complaining all the time. Acting up like I have the biggest problems in the world. I blame it on my busy life. 

I was annoyed with everyone for not understanding me, not understanding my busy life.

And that's when I know my life ain't perfect..

And then I realize my life was perfect because I have God and grateful was the key to my perfect life.
