I have. 

All those things that I prayed for and told myself not to worry about,

all those words that I never want to hear again,

all those scenes I’ve seen that I never want to see a glimpse of again,

all those lies I’ve been told to, 

all those memories that I was so strong enough to lock up in a chest and bury in the deepest pit in myself,

. . they all kept on replaying over and over

and over and over

again. 

I wanted to cry. It was so late and I’ve never had enough sleep lately.

I wanted to be brain-dead at least for a night. 

And so I prayed. 

And almost instantaneously, my thoughts calmed down! Then my head resorted to thinking about just one thing, 

and that is how blessed I am for not having big-time problems at all. 

That gave me an idea. Haha! I made a mental list of how blessed I am—starting from 1 until about 50. I don’t think I ever reached 50 though. HAHA. I guess I fell asleep as I was doing a headcount of all the blessings I’ve been given—opportunities, lessons, people, and material things alike. 

Anyway, yeah, I think I’ve only had 4 hours of really, really good sleep. I guess I should sleep as much as I can when I get home from school this afternoon. 

Lalala~ Blessed enough to be alive today! :D HELLO, JULY—my favorite month! :D
