Things I never take for granted....

1. Food -
 you have to really be hungry to understand and appreciate and be grateful for food. Fasting is a good tactic, I've been doing that this past month and do I have a new appreciation for food. Also I've been to India and that itself is revelation. India is not just the Taj Mahal place and certainly is not how it's depicted, at times. It's not a very nice place, it's depressing and hallow, but when I walked away from it I had learned something. I've learned not to waste food, as much.


2. My parents over-protectiveness - I've always been grateful for this, even if it is annoying.

3. The way my mind works - my brain is my best friend, no one gets me like my brain does. 

4. Productive day - days when you know you can do anything, like today. I've been working all day and fasting, but I got everything done and then some.
P.s. My Roman Catholic grandmother keeps sprinkling me with holy water because I'm fasting. My dad's not a Catholic, that's a big negative factor in our family, but even worse to them is that all his kids and wife follow his religion.  It's fascinating really.
