Being grateful is very essential, gratitude should be practiced daily even in sad times and cheerful times.
Being alive is enough reason to be grateful, because being alive is a privilege and a hope for a better days.
I use to be someone that thinks alot, especially when things don't go as planned or situations of life gets really bad, until I spent time at the hospital last year to nurse my dad .
I spent about 6 days at the hospital with my dad, there at the hospital, I saw a lot of sick patience, witnessed some persons died too and all I told myself was that I would be grateful now and always.
I saw alot of critical conditions that traumatized me and that experience left me thanking God for the privilege of being healthy and alive.
The second experience that I had that made me realize the importance of gratitude was an accident scene I witnessed, I saw a teenager lost her legs, and she might not be able to walk again, and at that moment I told myself that this could be anyone, because this is the same road I take often.
Gratitude is very important, your current situation, is someone else's prayer request.
There are alot of things to be grateful for in life, but in this week prompt, we are asked to share three things we are grateful for, here's are the three things I'm forever grateful for;
1 . GRATEFUL FOR THE GIFT OF LIFE AND BEING HEALTHY:
Being able to breathe daily is really an underrated blessing, life is an opportunity that everyone ought to be grateful and happy to witness daily.
An opportunity to love, live, prosper, forgive, be forgiven and many more.
The gift of life is one of the major reasons I'm forever grateful to God.
It's such a great privilege and an amazing opportunity.
Being alive is a reason is such a miracle, that everyone should be grateful for.
Waking healthy is another underrated blessing, having a good and perfect health is a valid reason to be happy and cheerful.

Have you ever thought of how it feels to be without shelter and a home?
This is one thing that everyone ought to be grateful for, having a shelter to protect you alway from rain, sun and mosquito.
Being homeless is traumatizing, I am grateful for the gift of shelter.
