Why do we always want what we dont have?
Why cant we be happy with what we HAVE, instead of dwelling on what we dont have?
If we just took one minute to be thankful we might realize how much more we have then what some people have! My family is not the richest family, and sometimes I catch myself saying hateful stuff about people that have more stuff then seems fair.......and then I stop and think......I have a house, I have food,I have clothes on my back (and plenty of shoes) and most importantly I have a family and friends that love me!!!! That's alot more then alot of people can say!!
Sometimes I forget, and I just dont care.......But there are people out there that dont have a house, and they dont have even.......food......the clothes they wear is the only clothes they own!!!!! Can you imagine that? I think we should stop for just a second and think......and be thankful. Maybe next time you complain, you should stop and think wait......I have this and that!!!!! I dont live in a mansion......not even close......But I also dont live in a cardboard box. The food we have might seem gross......but it's food.....and I'm never hungry unless I choose to be. I have my own room, my own computer, my own phone, and alot of other stuff that alot of people can only dream about! I am thankful!!!!!!!! God blessed me with a great life, and great friends. I cant ask for more. Sure I would like my own car....or for my family to atleast have 2 cars.....or maybe a bigger house so my brother didnt have to sleep on the couch. It would be nice to have a nice phone..........BUT, I am thankful for what I do HAVE!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Whatever happens in my life, is meant to happen.......and I am happy & thankful!!!!
I cant ask for more.....I can only follow God and accept what he hands me!!!!
God Bless you!!!
