Gratitude Post (2)

Alhamdulillah. Today is the last blessed Friday of the month of May. We will be having a long weekend since our Agong's birthday falls on Monday. 

This week has been somewhat fulfilling. I had to travel to Penang on Monday. A colleague decided to drove up and we ended up chatting away the whole way. I am glad that I have nice colleagues to work with. 

I just got my car back from the workshop today. They changed the alternator but I dont need to pay for it as it is covered under my warranty. Now it is back sounding like a cat soft purr instead of an angry bull growls.

Work is trickling slowly. I like slow weeks like this. The company is doing well, everyone is busy but everything is under control. 

I get to donate blood this week.  I am grateful that I am healthy enough to be able  to do it. I try to donate at least once a year when the blood bank comes to our office. The committee organizing it was super generous too. We were given a bunch of goodies afterwards.

My family will be gathering this weekend. Although I prefer quiet weekends, I am somewhat looking forward to that. I manage to order some food as requested by my mom.

Alhamdulillah for today, for all the blessings and gifts that I have received today. Especially the gift of life. We get to wake up in your own house. Have easy access to food and water.  Being healthy, breathing clean air, looking at beautiful blue sky and lush green trees. Living in such a beautiful and peaceful country is something we often take for granted simply because we were born in it. We don't need to work for it or fight for it. All praise to Allah, for all these great blessings.

We had a great night yesterday, Eddy and I. We were supposed to have our Mandarin class but it was cancelled. We bought some provisions and ended up watching the Mission Impossible movies, a marathon. We manage to finished MI 2, 3 and 4 in one sitting. I am glad that I marry my best friend. We enjoyed the same things. We get to do a lot of things together. He was exactly the person I prayed for. I am thankful for that each and every single day.

I went back to Kampar last weekend. We had a great evening in Silverlake. Took my mom shopping. We also get to watch the beautiful sunset. Those moments are so precious.
