THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR

Hi all! Hope you are as fit as a fiddle and as happy as a clam! 

Thanksgiving is almost around the corner and where I come from we don't have turkeys or traditions to celebrate thanksgiving. So, that kept me wondering what I should do to make thanksgiving really like thanks-giving...That kept me wondering and wondering till I took a pen and paper and started jotting down all the little things in life I am thankful for. These were just the random things that snuck into my mind that I thought were worth sharing with the whole wide world.

1. Life: For the 'health in your bones'.It is probably the biggest gift one can receive from the Lord above without being asked. 

2.Family: For when life gets rough and patchy,having people to run to who make everything okay.
3.Friends: For sharing the wonderful things life has to offer together.
4.Mobile Phones: For keeping everyone and everything connected.
5.Laptops: For keeping everyone busy.
6.Internet: For the times when you feel like the laptop isn't enough.

7.Facebook: For knowing who's up to what.
8. I Pod's: For listening to music on the go when carrying a laptop isn't the way to go.
9.Books: For making you look busy when you don't want to talk to strangers on the bus.
10.People who write books: For writing books and inspiring people to dream.
11.Air conditioning: For cooling you on a hot summer day.
12.Rain: For washing everything,everywhere and refreshing life.
13.Electricity: For all its wonders.
14.Kind Strangers: For brightening up your day.
15.Failures: For telling you how it should have not been done.
16.Successes:For patting you the back for doing it right.
17.Random holidays in a working week: For allowing you to sleep that extra two hours in the morning.
18.A Bed: For you to sleep comfortably each night as you voyage into your land of dreams.
19.A Home: For all the days when you are far far away somewhere and feel like tapping your heels together 3 times like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz just to say 'there is no place like home'.
20. Home Deliveries: For days you are lazy enough to go and get things yourself.

The list is a never ending one to be frank....These were just the first few things that came into my lousy head. Feel free to add the things you are thankful for to this huge list....Leave them in my comments and I'll append them to my list.

Have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone,giving thanks to the one person above who gave you all the things in life unasked....

Before I bid my goodbyes I have something to say... Just pause a second and take a look around the world that constantly passes you unnoticed. You might be surprised in how many ways people who are less fortunate then you constantly remind you to be thankful.If you can, do your part in making the lives of such people better. If you cannot afford monetary help,even the old unused blanket to the poor old man sleeping in the cold on the corner of the street every night would do in making the world a happy place.

What to do if you are having a mid life crisis?

Go on a rejection roller coaster. I'm not kidding. Really. The one way to get through this so called mid life crisis is do as many insane things as possible and get rejected up on your face as many time as possible. But the key here is not to give up. Keep on trying. Keep on trying for new things. Keep on finding ways to make a complete jack of yourself. Keep on doing those things you've always wanted to do even though you are not good enough. The only key is to Not Not Not Never Ever Ever like forever GIVE UP.

Cinderella and the 4 Knights KDrama Review

Image
Binge watched another Korean drama after a long time. Here is my review on it. This is just like the name says. One Girl, 4 boys and the girl ends up living like a Cinderella at a Sky house where 3 of these 4 knights stay. Like any KDrama, almost all the boys fall for this Cinderella Girl, and there is always that one Boy who is super rude to girl but she falls for him anyways. That is what happened here too. The cast did a wonderful job with their roles and played their part like total Pro's. This is my first time watching a KDrama with  Park So-dam  in it. I'd have to admit, I loved her acting on screen.  Jung Il-woo  also did a good job with this role. This was my third KDrama with his as a lead and franky, I think he did an even more better job in ' High-End Crush '. I watched  Ahn Jae-hyun  in both Blood and My Love from another Star. This was probably the best he performed. Though the story line was way to predictable, Ahn Jae Hyuns character in this D

Talk about things that matter

Ever heard the phrase talk is cheap? I think it's time we reiterated that phrase and make everyone everywhere understand it. You see, these days I'm seeing people making use of words for the the most useless-est things possible. They use words to curse each other, talk bad about each other, plot against each other, hurt each other.. the list seems simply endless. What the Bible says is, when you speak, let your words be seasoned with grace so that everyone who hears it will be benefitted from it. The comparison infact is with salt. How salt adds flavor to absolutely anything, your words are supposed to add flavor to life. I know it is difficult to literally think before every word that comes out of your precious mouth. But for starters, one place I'd recommend you start off with is reminiscing about what you have already spoken and taking time to evaluate yourself. Here are 3 questions you should ask yourself after every conversation 1. Did I really have to say somethin
