My notebook (taken by my phone)
Life is full of surprises. Sometimes, problems come without warning and make us drown in them. Sadness, despair, and disapointment make us put aside all the happiness, laughter and joy that we have been through. When we are in trouble, that's when we realize how many things we should be grateful for in this life.
Look at what we have today. We still have eyes to see, ears to hear, and other organs of our body that are still functioning well. Many people out there are in physical weakness that makes them unable to live their days well or even just move. Our body is one of the most beautiful gifts from God.
The talents and intelligence that we have are also things that we must be grateful for everyday. Talent make us able to do things that not everybody can do. So is the intelligence that has brought us able to go through every problem in life so far. Such as being able to go to school, establish social relationships in society, and do activities every day.
Our happy life is also inseparable from the role of our parents. They have known us long before our friends today. They raised us with love and attention even though the form of love they give us is sometimes not acceptable and understandable. But, sometimes we forget their role as a parents and the safest place to talk about anything.
We tend to prefer to be "over sharing" to our friends who then lead us to the wrong way. We can't choose what kind of family we will be born and raised in. We must always be grateful for what God has outlined for us untill now. There are many children out there who miss the love of their parents.
Regardless of the things we should be grateful for, we must realize that there is no perfect form of life in this world. All will certainly be hit by problems and imperfections. Complementing each other as a family, doing positive things, and developing the talents we haveis one way to be grateful for life. Justice is very hard to find today. So, create justice for ourselves and be grateful for what we have today.
