Million Little Miracles: My Journey.

There was a time I used to think life had something personal against me, I see people experience ease with a good and soft life, but it do seems like I was absent when He(God)was dishing all of that out to people, or maybe I came late and just have to settle for this that is available.

I feel there's no better way to explain how I struggled through school, fell ill for years and still be in that same condition of having to eat anything that is made available. My story is a very long, deep and emotional one, imagine having to drop out if school due to illness, imagine being bedridden for years, imagine having to undergo various surgeries, imagine having to have even lost all hope, imagine the pain, stress and all that would even make a mother wish maybe it's high time this son of hers just go to rest. It was just too much.

It’s very easy to complain about life, about how unfair it is, because of a truth, life no really fair, at all. Personally, life has been a teacher to me, it has taught me a lot....love, pain, heartbreak, kindness, charity, strength, gratitude and a lot more. One thing life has also taught me is that, while we're busy dragging God and asking "Why me?", something is happening behind, something sweet is also being dished out to us everyday, even though small/little, it's happening in everyday moments.

Firstly, I’m grateful for my health, it's definitely the first for me, it's way beyond my imagination, that despite all, I will still be standing, I mean I can be able to bathe myself without help, that wasn't possible some 3_4 years ago. I am grateful I don’t sleep in hospitals anymore. Hospital was more like a home sometimes back. My bones aching like they were tired of carrying me, I couldn’t walk, even with help I can only go few steps, to t stand up straight is a problem, smile and laughter became strangers to me, how could I laugh or smile in my present predicament, the pain is even too much for me to try to. But today, I can now climb a bike, I can smile and laugh at will, I can bend, I can dance, I eat and do every other thing I was thought is a no for me. To me it's a miracle, that's how I coined my nickname....Milliracle_Million Little Miracles.

Secondly, I’m grateful for family, they stayed with me and loved me, non of them ever went his or her way even when I became a burden. They sit with me, run errands, pray with me, encourage me, sent messages, showed up, showed kindness. They didn't have much, but I can say it with my full chest that they gave me everything they had. Their love is the softest, realest and boldest I’ve ever experienced/seen.

And lastly, I don't know what else to be grateful for, I have a lot of thing's to be grateful for, God has been so good to me, the education that was once on hold due to sickness, is now a down deal, I am now a graduate and a certified Agricultural Extensionist. But I think it's just best to say, *I am grateful for the opportunity to be able to say I am grateful.

Life tried to put me on hold, to take me out, and if it had succeeded, I won't have the opportunity to do this, so, I am grateful for the opportunity to be thankful again. Life tried to steal my smile, but somehow, I still find myself laughing. When I remember my past, I smile, not because it was funny, but because I survived it...and for that I am grateful.

No argument about how life can be unfair. But atimes, we should sit and count these things....we should count our blessing's one by one, and we will be amazed at how even despite all, there are unexpected kindness, blessings and more that we've overlooked, and sometimes... that's enough.
