A talent and a vocation that are actually somewhat useful to the world (I hope). The fact that I'm receiving the treatment I need for certain personal issues. 2011 and 2012 weren't so good, but 2013 was better at least, and there's no reason 2014 can't be better still.

That's probably how you are able to type

I know with my mild dyslexia some of my longer posts would look like we're written by a 10 year old without it.
