Just feel blessed :)
You do not have the latest mobileYou do not own a Versace dress...
God you don't have a diamond set..
How you wished you could buy that Louboutin Heels...
Your mum just keeps interfering in your life!
Your dad will not give you enough pocket money
Your gf/ bf is not hot enough
You have a crappy job/car/house...
Well your life sucks!!
We complain everyday! we just need a reason to complain. Whether it is because of the climate or you just missed your bus...
We human beings are like complaining machines... Our complaints just do not stop!!!
From adolescents to adults... We all wished our lives were better...
But have you ever thought how God has favored you, how blessed we really are...
Did you ever compare yourselves with people living in third world countries?
People living in war zones? People whose having their homes invaded, children taken away from them, daughters raped....
In some African countries shoes, education, clothes and 3-times a day meal are luxuries many can't afford.
Some of you might remember about the Bangladesh accident. A building collapsed killing over a hundred people. Before complaining about your jobs just think in what conditions these people were working and are still working..
You think your hair is not good enough, you are not pretty enough... well think about that girl suffering from cancer who had to witness all her hair falling and her body changing drastically due to aggressive treatments!
You think your parents are constantly interfering in your life, well how about the 5 year old kid who just lost his parents due to HIV or tuberculosis in Africa! Or maybe that 8 year old girl who is praying everyday for someone to take her away from that orphanage, praying to have her parents back who were shot by some narrow minded jerk!
WE ARE BLESSED!
Blessed to be away from real problems... For me real problems are problems threatening your 3 basic needs.
Food, shelter and clothing...
As long as we have these, we have no reason to complain except to feel blessed...
Stop comparing yourself with people who have more than you.
Compare yourself with people having less than you and see in how many ways you are blessed
Life in itself is a blessing...
The more you will run after this world, the more you will lag behind
It's time to find that balance and harmony.
Remember what you are complaining about, someone would have given everything just to have that.
So stop complaining and just feel blessed
