At the age of 40, she was suffering from diabetes. ( Main reason for diabetes is the emotion, I have not received enough or enough has not been done for me…Discontentment) From outside it looked like she had everything but she always had complains that her husband and her family did not do enough for her. Her health was falling continuously. Her husband did not know what could be done to help her believing that she was loved and he was doing all he could. He had done some mistakes but all do but they were unintentional and beyond his capacity. She had everything now, but she was stuck in past. I asked her, what all gifts has she received today and she said nothing new. Nothing new does not mean we discard what we are receiving everyday.
So we took a ride to an orphanage and on the way we saw a slum area too. There she saw children who grew up in great poverty or just survived on food. For them everything was to manage was rather than what others could not do for them. She realized how blessed she was and how much was being done for her. It helped her in improving health too. It helped her in creating a better relationship and being happy.
Often we keep looking at what we did not get in life …who decides what we did not get? But that would always lead to problems and health issues. However, If we start looking at what we all have, we would realize we already have a lot. Wake up everyday with Thank you and sleep every day with a thank you. Ask for health and ask for abundance. Complaining would create more problems. Be grateful for every breath you take and the life you have. Thousands of gifts are sent everyday, spread your arms and you would see your life full of gifts rather than lack.
