What are the biggest blessings in life

I’ve been searching to figure out what are the biggest blessings in life. I can’t say, but I think I’ve found it. Relationships are a big blessing also. What do you think are the biggest blessings in life and what are your favorite blessings in life.

The biggest blessing in my life is my girlfriend. She’s the only one who showed me unconditional love, although that’s under the understanding that I wasn’t abusive or anything else that would have forced her to leave me to protect herself.
The things I wouldn’t do for myself, like getting sober for the most part or being strictly med compliant, I did to maintain my part of the relationship we started. As time went on, I gained so much more insight into these decisions and my life in general, that I feel like I am doing better than even before I became sick.

Any day I’m not smoking crack is a blessing.
Any day I’m not in the hospital is a blessing.

Family for me. Specifically my mother. I was psychotic and she said I’d take me in and not the hospital. That was 2 times in emergancy and she still said no. I owe her a lot for that and still help out my parents any chance i get…

So family. …and friends!

Yeah family does step up and help. They’ve done a lot to kind of permanently offend me. Throwing stuff away. Never taking me seriously.

It feels pretty juvenile living with my dad, but right now I can feel a lot of more permanent adjustment setting in.

The blessings of life are it’s potentials… None of us really ever have to give up on anything.

It’s a blessing to not be one of the many still out there who truly oppressed from birth until death in regions that manipulated and downplay the need to care for their populations.

i think a healthy brain is important, without one you cannot appreciate blessings. a healthy body is even more important, having serious illness can be very painful

many people with serious mental or physical ailments live in constant pain and torment for their whole lives. some never understood what it is like to stand on your own, or see or think properly, and things like that

The biggest blessing I have in my life is the unconditional love I receive from my girlfriend and mother.

I feel incredibly blessed to have my husband in my life. He has supported me financially, emotionally, psychologically, and sometimes physically. He shows me that he loves me in so many ways. I also feel blessed to have my children. Having them as young as I did (at ages 15, 18, and 22) was a blessing in disguise. It seemed to ruin my chances at having what I considered to be a normal life for people my age, and sometimes I regretted not getting to go to prom or spring break at college, things like that. Still, if I hadn’t had them when I did, I wouldn’t have had kids at all in all likelihood. I have a blood clotting disorder that would have put my life at risk were I to become pregnant. Those with my condition who do get pregnant are prone to late term miscarriages. I didn’t develop the disorder until one year after I had my youngest daughter. So I just barely made it in time! How’s that for a blessing?

I feel my family is a blessing but also being in America with its many problems, I feel grateful that I can believe in whatever I want.

I don’t believe in blessings as a concept but good stuff in my life…
Probably the fact that I get free treatment.
Even though the meds for my voices aren’t that effective. I suppose my family (such as it is, sperm donors side has nothing to do with me) is fairly accepting.
