Never Forget How Blessed You Are
Christina Conti

In life, people always have a way of forgetting just how much they are blessed. They might feel sorry for themselves because they failed a test, but they might have some of the best friends a person could ask for. They might have had their heart broken, but they have the best family in the world to be there for them. They might seem too busy to stand still and that they can't do anything right, but someone looks up to them and thinks the best of them.

I have been guilty of forgetting just how much I am blessed. With a million things to do in my life, I often forget just how amazing my friends and family are but God always has a way of reminding me just how amazing the people he has put into my life are. He is able to remind me with so many supportive friends and family members just how amazing the people in my life are. They never cease to put a smile on my face and show me the love of Christ through their actions.

God places people in your life that are blessings, and He takes away people who are not blessing and enriching your life. Listen to Him when He tells you who is a blessing and who is only temporary. If He ever takes something out of your life, He will always give you something that will bless your life more than the other thing could. Never forget that He always has your best interest in mind. His love for you is unconditional and he shows that through your talents and the blessings you hold most dear in life.

So when you are having a day that seems impossible or something in life has you down, just remember the people who will be there for you no matter what. Those people who will turn a busy week around with encouraging words and sweet gifts. Those people who will make you forget upsetting news and focus on the joys in life. And the people who are always there for you no matter what. Never forget how blessed you are by these people and that God put them in your life for a reason. They are here to show you just how wonderful you are and never let you forget it.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
