For me, it's a great opportunity on a public platform to get on your knees and humble myself and thank the Lord for all the blessings he's put in my life.
Every failure is a blessing in disguise, providing it teaches some needed lesson one could not have learned without it. Most so-called Failures are only temporary defeats.
Today don't beg, don't ask, just thank God in silence for all the blessings in your life.
Be thankful for the smallest blessing and you will deserve to receive greater. Value the least gifts no less than the greatest, and simple graces as especial favors. If you remember the dignity of the Giver, no gift will seem small or mean.
All blessings come to us through our Lord. He will teach us, for in beholding His life we find that He is the best example.

I want to be remembered as kind and generous of spirit and someone who loved to laugh and that I never took my blessings or other people for granted.
