Gratitude is when an individual is thankful for receiving gift whether tangible or intangible.

I went back home disturbed and worried, i was broken down, i had no choice than to return to my former job, obviously it offers less stress.
After almost a week of recuperating, finally i went back to my salon to resume my barbing work, i never told anyone the incident that happened at the factory.
After the treatment i received from the company i was given some drugs to take home to be used daily, i used the drug as prescribed for 3days and within me i felt i was okay.
5days later at around 7pm in evening i had another asthma attack, i was surprised because i thought it wasn't long that i had been treated,why having another attack so soon?
What i didn't understand was that unlike other sickness asthma is different, because its consistent attack can be caused by different type of triggers, to my detriment i never knew that.

I wasn't aware of the triggers, so most times i was the one causing the attacks. I kept having attacks on weekly basis it stopped me from working, i was also relieved of my duties at my work place on the account of lateness and absence from work which caused the salon a great deal because the salon was losing customers...
I went back home with a broke heart, i was dejected, sometimes i even contemplate suicide, i was later counselled on the triggers of asthma, during the counselling i was asked to stop eating some food that i love eating alot, my drinking water was different, the doctored ordered that i never drink any other water than EVA table water, its only a Nigerian that will understand the cost of one EVA table water, and i had to buy this everyday even though i was unemployed at the time, i was spending money i didn't make back things became so difficult.
It got to a stage i made a pact with God, the creator of heaven and earth to heal me, because obviously no human can heal my sickness, i kept praying, there is this song i made my watchword, i would never stop singing the song hoping and believing through this i can connect with God to heal me. "I am the God that healeth thee" and "Heal me oh Lord" by Don Moen.

The song did the magic, i even openly testify to God divine healing hand believing within me that i will be healed, though i still had asthma but my faith would heal me and i key into that message and to the praises of his Holy Name, i was healed, i didn't even know until after many months, i looked back and realised i never had an attack for 3months.

Jet-li in the movie Fearless cured his asthma with Wushu kung-fu training, God cured mine with just my faith.
God is wonderful and great he has told us that he can do abundantly above all that we can ever ask of.
This is one of the things am grateful for, this contest to me is not just like every other contest because i am attaching deep meaning to it, and its also a way of looking back and thanking God for what he has done and what he is doing.
Kudos to boss @tojukaka for the gratitudeday contest, cheers..
