I AM GRATEFUL

Today is my birthday and I think it’s the perfect time to count all my blessings.

• .       I am grateful for another year added to my life. For me each birthday is God giving me an opportunity to be a better person.
•        I am grateful for a family that goes out of their way to make you happy, even if its inconveniencing. I am grateful for my dramatic, funny, extremist and prayerful mom. For my baby sis who makes me laugh loud. For my elder sisters that celebrate me at each milestone.
•        I am grateful for friends who have become family. I have the best friends in the world, they don’t understand why I argue, why I can be dramatic, why I laugh like a squirrel, why I am thrifty, why I raise my voice unnecessarily, but they just let me be. For the friends who put me in check, who tell me to face my fears, who make me laugh I am grateful.

•        I am thankful for my female friends. In a society where everyone shouts about how women pull themselves down, I am thankful that isn’t my reality.
•        I am grateful for 5 years in Covenant University without expulsion or suspension. In this place as you try to understand one rule another rule comes up and it overwhelms you.
•        I am grateful for the rude babe in the hostel buttery, she teaches me self-control.
•        I am grateful for Aunty Tina in EIE buttery, she is so nice. Her customer service makes the food taste better. The way she asks you, when she hasn’t seen you in a while. The way she is excited on people’s birthdays and how she smiles shy when she takes a picture with the celebrant. She teaches you how to be constantly happy at whatever position you find yourself in.
•        I am grateful who the people who take out time to visit my blog and leave comments. God bless you.  
•        I am grateful for all the funny people online, who take out time to create funny memes especially with Kevin Hart and Raven Symone ‘s pictures.

•      I am thankful for people who don’t put padlocks on their Instagram accounts. Stalking them is a day time job, don’t judge me biko.
•      I am thankful for bloggers with a good sense of humor and beautiful writing skills, visiting their sites encourage me to write better. Check out Osisiye’s blog.
•        I am thankful that I have great taste and I hate suffer head, it’s a constant reminder that I have to work hard, to get the things I want.
•       I am thankful for Skype and Gtalk, I have the best conversations there.
•        I am thankful for all the radio stations that keep me company during the holidays.
• .   I am thankful for little things like plantain chips, gala, Capri-Sonne, Cway Apple, Smoozy, Peach flavored Iced tea, Fanta.

          So what are you thankful for?
