Dear Lord, 

Thank You for making we wake up and get up. 

This has been my daily prayer for the past months. Simple and to the point. A daily reminder that I need to be deserving of every chance earned.

They say that every day is a new beginning. Having the chance to wake up and experience another day again is a gift because you get to be blessed or become a blessing. And if you’re really lucky, you get to be both.

Yes, you’ve earned it. But it doesn’t stop there.

Aside from waking up, you need to get up. For without the getting up, you’re just a lump on your bed, one with your sheets and pillows. For without the getting up, you rob yourself of making the most of the day.

A day that not everyone gets. A day that not every one has.
