overlooked blessing #1
Sometimes pride can make us overlook the numerous amounts of blessings that we've received. Take myself for example:
i've always thought that i;m the most unluckiest person in the world because i was born in a family where none of us sibllings are as close to one another as other families. But when i think about it, and when i try to look beyond these shallow thinking of mine, i've began to notice of the many good things by being in this family, such as:
- my eldest brother - though he might have problems and is not really a good example for an eldest brother - he's actually the most caring and giving person i've ever seen. I know because i've seen and experience it e.g. he try to keep his brother and sisters happy by providing food for us. he tries to make a good relationship with all his siblings eventhough many times it meant that he had to receive numerous rejections and insult from his fellow brother and sisters (i have to admit)
- my elder brother - though he might fight with me a lot - but in his own ways he's shows that he cares about his brother and sisters
- my sister - she bought us snacks from japan - still yet to find the treasure burried within her..
anyway... i'm pretty sure i will regret writing this post later (especially when my mom found out about it and read it) because now the expectation that she have of me will be so much greater. I can already imagine her recounting this post when i'm fighting with my older brothers and sister. Sometimes i do enjoy fighting! because it's the only possible - normal method i know to communicate with them.. or else everyday is just silence - no talking just doing our own thing on the computer...
eniway, if i can ask for a prayer - could you please pray for my relationship with my brothers and sister -that God would take my pride away from me so that i would be able to have a normal relationship with them...
thx
