count my blessings?

As I walked at the underpass while on my way back from Orchard today, both Jordan and I could not help but notice this frail old lady sitting in her wheelchair begging for money. My heart was sadden to see the sight because I knew that I did not have the material wealth to help her. I couldn't help but wonder why did she have to sit there and beg if she had a family whom she could rely on? Why did God allow such a frail old woman not to be able to enjoy life after going through so much in her life?
But as we continued to walk, Jordan reminded me that God probably let me see the woman to remind me how blessed I am, being able to enjoy life comfortably. I would not want my parents to suffer such a fate, afterall they had done so much to provide for the family.
Went out to celebrate Jianhorng, Mikhtam and Joel's birthday today at NYDC. Had a good time of fellowship coupled with a good time of laughs, teasing and eating. We were saddened to hear that because of the unwillingness of the armed forces to grant JH a deferment that now he is unable to go ahead with the mission trip that he has been planning for. However, maybe God is using this time to hone his skills even more so that he would be more ready for the challenges that lie ahead for him.
Though I saw you today, we didn't talk much. The teasing was harmless but I wished the person that was teased together with you was me. I guess I shouldn't let it affect me that much but I can't help but think of it. HAIX! Should I still count my blessings?
