Though Chinese New Year has not ended, I'm already back in Kuala Lumpur and getting ready to start work tomorrow. Managed to get myself some rest during Chinese New Year back in my hometown and I'm ready for tomorrow. When I was back in my hometown, I've stumbled upon some old photos of me and my family. My first few birthday parties and for Malaysians, we always have that one naked kid photo taken in one of the photo albums. Don't worry, this isn't a NSFW post. But I'm sure some of you Malaysians would know what I mean.
Having all these memories just made me realized how blessed I am to be where I am today. Hence, coming up with this post to wrap up my Chinese New Year series.
20 Things I am Thankful For in 2017/2018
No.1 Blessed with the best of friends
They've seen my good, bad and ugly side but still love me for who I am. Always giving me a benefit of a doubt and for truly sticking with me through it all.
No.2 My Family
They've done their best to give me their everything. They've given me life.
No.3 Freedom of being a Christian
Still able to go to church and worship God every Sunday without restrains. To worship whenever and wherever I want.
No.4 Pink of Health
Always able to do everything I wanted without any hiccups in health. Blessed to be always healthy.
No.5 A roof over my Head
The best sound when you hear the pitter-patter of raindrops while you're comfortable in bed at night.
No.6 Food on the Table
I know that they'll always be enough for me every day. So much that I have the choice to even eat more expensive cuisines.
No.7 Financially Well
Able to live a comfortable lifestyle and also being able to give and bless others.
No.8 Good Career
I've never been happier to have found this new company that I'm currently in. It's been 6 months and things have been going great.
No.9 My Steemit Family
#steemitbloggers, #teammalaysia and so many other amazing people who I've met on here. It's been such a blessing to get to know each and everyone and some even closer and have become friends.
No.10 Life lessons and mistakes
The hurt, the pain, the joy, the achievements, all that I've learnt throughout has only taught me on how to move forward stronger and how to better myself.
No.11 Love
"Better to have loved and lost, then to never loved at all" - Alfred Lord Tennyson
No.12 Being alive
Able to wake up the next day and the next is truly a blessing. The feeling of getting excited for an event the next day, or a party. To be able to feel emotions.
No.13 Opportunities
A lot of opportunities have opened up for me in 2017 and this year. I'm hoping to make full use of it and hopefully succeed.
No.14 The Love of God
Everytime I go astray, His Grace, Mercy and Love still keeps me safe and reminds me of His Love. His favor never ceasing.
No.15 Creativity & Ideas
Only recently I've realized that I can do so much more. Though still weak in artistic sense, I do have some creativity and ideas that are truly of my own.
No.16 Eye-Opening Experiences
The really amazing things that I've seen and also the really ugly ones that has made me wiser.
No.17 Words of Encouragement
They say the Devil's greatest weapon is 'discouragement'. Ever wonder what would happen if someone is discouraged? He/she would probably give up in life. But instead, I've been flooded with a lot of Encouragement especially from my Steemit friends. These words of affirmation are of great value and it should definitely be spoken forth more often to everyone around.
No.18 Trying New Things
From first time emcee-ing to babysitting a bunch of kids. Sooner or later, I would be taking on the world! :D
No.19 My Car
Who would've thought? But seriously, if you're living in Kuala Lumpur, having your own car to travel is already the best that could happen.
No.20 Good Connections
People who have come into my life whether for a job, to work together or to give me wider exposure.
There are many more things that I'm Thankful for throughout the years. But these are some of the important ones. I do hope that you would also see the positive side in your own life and by listing them out, you may just see the 'light at the end of the tunnel'. Instead of always being in the dark.

This was lovely to read and such a good idea. So often people make "what I want to do" lists and you've made a list of everything that you're thankful for. Happy New Year and may it be a good and blessed year.
