the little things, like being able to wake up in the morning hale and hearty. When you work in a hospital you get to appreciate so many things you take for granted.

Over the hill, few more wrinkles, perhaps newer wisdom.  Yet I am thankful to God on my 41st b/day.  This is what my daughter wrote in my bithday card

[i]Dear mommy:

Words or action can't express what you mean to me.  You are a wonderful mother, best friend, father and provider.  you have done many good things for me, I hope you enjoy your 41st birthday because it only comes once.

$10.00, it's not much but enjoy yourself @ the movies.  Love you  Smiley"[/i]


Living to see her grow into a fine young lady, makes me appreciate life. Cry Cry Cry

It would always be money; when you see all the latest rides and big house you would always want to have such goodies for yourself; that’s what makes me enjoy life.

Family, friends and having fun.

The fact that I work in a place where people have all the money in the world but cannot by good health.

The fact that money cannot buy happiness.

The fact that heaven and earth, reward and punishment, and the likes exist in this world and not in the afterlife.

The fact that you WILL always reap what you sow.



Most importantly, the fact that I love my life and myself more than anything else in this world.  And that the almighty being or beings have favored me in giving me the means to supply ALL my needs.

And. . . . . . . . NOT IN NIGERIA! THANK HEAVENS!!!!!
Life is beautiful. Kiss

the little things mainly

~  that joy can be found in the most unlikely places

~  small unexpected gestures of kindness

~   human triumph in the face of unimaginable tragedy

Flowers in the spring, Cool
The stars in the night sky Cool
The soft breeze on my skin Cool
The sound of music Cool
Looking out my window seeing the serenity that comes with the trees in my neighbourhood Cool
Lest I forget Babies Cool

These are what I call priceless Cool

For me, it is having the ingredients of LIVING. The hard-to-describe intangibles –
independence,
financial freedom,
peace of mind,
smiles,
hugs,
kids,
laughter,
playing,
affectionate touches,
music,
love,
good spirit,
good food,
travels and vacation.


When all these things are working in harmony, something special happens. A magic that makes life truly worth living. At this stage you’ve started living.   

Refer to my post:
Is there really a difference between living and existing?
