being that i’m single my list is a little different from the married peoples’:
*when a friend calls to ask how a test was, or how my date went…it shows that they care and that makes me happy.
*making my friends smile when they’re down
*when i’m able to offer good advice
*when people call to say thank you and appreciate what i do
*when i hear of someone doing chesed for someone else, stam
*getting a hug from my younger sibling when i come home at the end of the day
*when my friends and i randomly break out in song when we’re hanging out together at someone’s house
*when i hear of a simcha of someone that i know
*when i get a funny text from my friend and i laugh out loud 🙂
*when a friend in my chevrah finishes my sentence; it feels good to know that someone knows you that well
*when my fiends and i reminisce and laugh over the things we did in elementary and high school
*Life in general 🙂 🙂 Baruch Hashem for all that I have, i feel truly blessed each and every day!
I once heard from someone that it’s very important to have a lot of concentration in modim (shmoneh esrai)…it can change your whole attitude and the way you look at life: when u stop and think of all that you REALLY have to be thankful and happy for your modim just may be as long as your shema kolainu!!
