I'm feeling a wee bit sorry for myself today. I'm tired...all this physical exertion is wearing me down. When I get enough sleep, I can maintain equilibrium, but when I go 48 hours on twelve hours of sleep, I'm just not tip-top. Which leads me to a desire to count my blessings (thanks, Mom) to compensate for feeling, for lack of a better expression, blah. Without further ado, here's ten things I thank my lucky stars for more than you could ever know...
My country: where maternity leave is a year long; religious education comes without tuition; and lakes are clean enough to drink from
That I flew out of this country ten times before my tenth birthday
Being witness for the birthof Our Baby
That I was taught to cook by three extraordinary women
My command of the English language
That I have loving, intelligent, funny, and worldly parents who supported my moving to Asia for a year, even when they thought they couldn't
My body bouncing back everytime I misuse it
The Ghost, for teaching me how to spot truth
Inspiration: how it comes in all forms now that I'm looking for it
The girls. If I don't tell you aloud everyday, know that I yell it all the time in my heart, "I LOVE YOU."
