Meaningful Birthday

I didn't realize how lucky I am just before my friends gave their greeting messages on my 22nd birthday.

Some say that I am blessed with so many things; but I myself don't see anything special in my life.

But they proved me wrong; if almost everyone of them think and say the same thing, then there's something wrong in my perspective of seeing my life.

A message from a friend quotes, "always remember that you are blessed and privileged with your family, friends, health and career."

I dissected every word from the message and tried to absorb them one by one. And yes, this is actually true; and I feel bad to have denied it before this realization.

I may not be giving the detailed process on how I came into the acceptance of me being this blessed, I know one thing; I have a problem.

Dilemma now is that, why do I see things differently from others? Am I having a problem with my contentment (though I can say that I'm a dreamless person; or is the other way around, that I am dreaming of things higher than what I am achieving)?
