To be thankful

Suddenly felt so depress
Staying at home alone today
Don’t want to talk or see anyone today at all

But I know I can’t stay like that for whole day
So I browse online and I find this clip
The pictures teach me different way to think

It is so good that I want to share

so bad that the words are in chinese
 so I typed into English here
enjoy the music and the picture

The simplest way to be happy is to be thankful

I am thankful that

Slide 1: Every night my loved one always fight with me with the blanket, that means he/she is not with someone else

Slide 2: Kids who always watch tv and not doing any household, that means he/she is being good and stay home and not wandering outside

Slide 3: I pay tax means I have a job

Slide 4: The clothes that I wear getting tide, that means I eat well

Slide 5: I see my shadow when I am working, that means I have a sun to enjoy

Slide 6: The grass that needs to be done, the windows that needed to be clean, and the drain that needed to be repaired means I have a home

Slide 7: We have lots of complaints to the government means we have a freedom of speech

Slide 8: We found and parked our cars at the further spot in the parking lots means we can still walk and we are fortunate to have a car

Slide 9: An expensive electricity bill means we are fortunate to own an air conditioners and enjoy using it

Slide 10: I heard a lady behind me who sings out of tune in the church on Sunday, means I have the ability to hear

Slide 11: I got tons of clothes to be washed, means I have clothes to wear

Slide 12: I feel tired and muscle hurting at the end of the day, means I have been working hard and have the ability of working hard

Slide 13: Every morning, I woke up by the alarm clock, means I am still alive

Slide 14: At last, my mail box full of emails, means I have lots of friends that are thinking about me

Look at the positive side!

The pictures are done by a Taiwanese artist whose pictures and stories become so famous in Asia and some of them have made into movies, check his website out

http://www.jimmyspa.comI’m thankful that I could taste different kind of tea
I’m thankful that I found something to cheer me up when I am depressed
I’m thankful that able to have time to enjoy the story while I am having a cup of lemon tea

Have you smiled/laughed today?!

 
I can be happy very easily and very easy to be satisfied
Especially with a cup of It doesn’t need to be a high class, expensive type of tea at all
The highest class of tea I ever had was Ma Liu Mei/Monkey Picked

The reason is called monkey picked, because the tea tree is grew between rocks and you need to climb up and get it like a monkey, therefore, it is called Monkey Picked. It is a type of Oolong tea.

However, after my first mid term today
I just realised I didn’t smile or laugh at all for the last 24 hours

As I found how many benefits that tea would give to our bodies
there is something natural,
without any (un)known chemicals as ingredients,
something that is free would benefit our bodies as well…

You know how smile or laughing is good to us?

Physiologically
- laughter promotes healing, by lowering the blood pressure, and by increasing the vascular blood flow + oxygentaion of the blood

Physical fitness
- laughing 100 times = 10 mins workout on a rowing machine
- laughing 100 times = 15 mins on stationary exe. bike
- Laughing exrcises the diaphragm, abdominal, respiratiory, facial, leg and back muscles
So here is a video would sure make you laugh about, check it out!
Just watch the whole video even though it is in Japanese, but I am sure you will get what there are trying to do in the video

But just in case, it is about the dog and the monkey are in a competition to see how many times of sit up they can do in 30 seconds comparing with the kindergarden kids. It is hilarious about the monkey and the dog

More “scientific” reasons of why we should laugh or how laughters do us god. http://stress.about.com/od/stresshealth/a/laughter.htm
