Thankful


I am thankful for... / Saya bersyukur untuk... / Ich bin dankbar für... 
  • My family (Dad, Mum, Otin & Chimmy). Without them, I won't be the person I am today.
  • My beloved amazing man, Robert. I won't be the person I am today, seriously. He makes me really happy.
  • My job & work family. They brought out the best and worst of me. They taught me how to be true to myself and discover who I really am. A coworker of mine told me today, "Rima, when I'm sick, I want you to be my nurse." I asked why. She said, "Because you are such a nice and amazing nurse."
  • My sisters. Without them, I won't have the backbones and supports I need to carry on with life. All 5 of them give me the wisdoms, guidance, and strength to just live. They are my rock.
  • My baking talent. It keeps me sane. I find peacefulness when I'm focus in the kitchen. The smile and joy that I see when people consume my baked goods enlightens me.
  • Distance. Even though I find it very difficult and tough, the distance that I now have with Rob really challenges our trust, loyalty and love to each other. It makes our relationship really stronger and better than ever.
  • The opportunity to travel. The world is such a beautiful place. Coldplay serenades, "We live in a beautiful world. Yeah we do, yeah we do..." I agree 100%. 
  • My friends. New and Old. They make my life so colorful. It is so awesome to have friends in many, many places.
  • My faith. If it wasn't for my faith, any temptations and tribulations that come my way can destroy me. I may not be the best and perfect SDA out there, but I know what's wrong and what's right. I try not to judge others because that is not my job. God has blessed me with many great things, even I know I don't deserve it.
I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! I had to work and it was great because us at work decided to do a potluck and celebrated with our work family. 

Stay grateful.

xoxo,
Rima

#blessed

Happy Thanksgiving!

This year I am grateful to be blessed by God and to be alive and well (!!!) and of course for my family, friends, Chimmy, my PillowMan, for a job, a roof under my head, my bed, a stocked kitchen, the ability to travel and enjoy what the World has out there... Just the opportunity to live.

We did our annual Thanksgiving Luncheon at a local hotel and of course it was good. It was great to spend time with my extended family.




And this was not all of them. One day we have to have ALL of them!

Be grateful. Be blessed.
