I strive to be grateful every day. 

For every second of uninterrupted Wi-Fi.

For every minute of a warm, comfortable shower.

For every sip of fresh, clean water.

For every bite of rice.

And so on.

It would be hard to number all the things that I could easily take for granted. There is just so much to thank God for, to be grateful about.

I thank God for giving me loving parents.

I thank God for helping me maintain good relationships with my family and friends.

I thank God for keeping me, and all those that I care about, safe.

I am so grateful—or I like to think of myself as being that way, because I try my best to be.
