10 Things I Am Grateful For

Wrote this in the morning when I woke up and decided to cross post it here.

==

So here are 10 things I'm grateful for. Big and small.

1. My blanket. Love how it keeps me warm when I'm cold. I'm all wrapped up now. Hehehe.

2. My wifi enabled phone. Having wifi was one of the things I insisted on when I was shopping for a phone. Didn't use it much initially, but am using it much more now.

3. Good food in my life. Singapore is really a glutton's paradise and I love being able to eat such a variety of food. Slurp. And having family and friends who cook well too? Best.

4. A roof over my head. A place to call home.

5. A close knit family. I know a lot of people aren't very close to their families but I'm so so so so so thankful that I am. And it's not just my immediate family, but extended family like aunties, uncles and cousins.

6. Wonderful traveling companions. It's not easy to find people that you enjoy traveling with, and I think it's amazing how good a time the 4 of us have when we travel together. It helps that we're all pretty easy going (read: lazy) and don't fluster easily. Lots of laughter on our trips.

7. My camera. Sosososo glad I brought my camera on this trip, otherwise we'd have no pictures. Lol. Plus I never have to worry about charging my batteries since it's powered by AA batteries.

8. A job I'm happy at with a boss I like and respect. Sure, my boss is leaving but I'm glad I had the opportunity to find out what it's like to work under a good boss.

9. Free accommodation in NY if I go in the next three years! One good thing that came out of my boss' resignation. Lol. I'll save a bomb!

10. Wanderlust. Notice how there's an exclamation point only in the item about an upcoming trip? Lol. I'm glad I am curious enough to want to see the world, and that I have the means to.

Practice for the New Millennium by the Dalai Lama

The Practice:
1. Spend 5 minutes at the beginning of each day rememberingwe all want the same things (to be happy and be loved)and we are all connected to one another.
2. Spend 5 minutes breathing in, cherishing yourself; and, breathing outcherishing others. If you think about people you have difficulty cherishing,extend your cherishing to them anyway.
3. During the day extend that attitude to everyone you meet. Practice cherishing the "simplest" person (clerks, attendants, etc)or people you dislike.
4. Continue this practice no matter what happens or what anyone does to you. These thoughts are very simple, inspiring and helpful. The practice of cherishing can be taken very deeply if done wordlessly, allowing yourself to feel the love and appreciation thatalready exists in your heart.

from Awakening The Buddha Within by Lama Surya Das

My Ten Things in my life partner - Man that wasn't so easy

(1) We are sexually compatible and find each other physically desirable, have tonnes of lasting chemistry, romance, tenderness and passion.

(2) We connect spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. Our bond is strong and stable and grows closer and better every day.

(3) He is successful in his field or career and financially stable and prosperous. He has an abundance of $, is more than able to support me and he is generous and willing to do so.

(4) He is ambitious (not necessarily career-wise but life-wise), and is always able to get what he wants but recognises the fact that life is more than just work, and he needs to spend time cultivating important things like his relationship with me.

(5) Willing to share his life with me and share my life in return. His friends and family become mine and vice versa. We will have an approving and supportive network and are surrounded by love.

(6) He is healthy and hygenic (very important ok) and has good clean habits and lifestyle.

(7) Faithful, honest and unwavering, open and sharing with me.

(8) Loves me deeply and I love him in in return (Good one Bon!)
