Do you ever feel guilty?

Do you ever feel guilty that perhaps you are moaning about things, that are not such a big deal? I do sometimes. Especially when you hear stories of people, who may have health issues/lost their limbs/maybe lost their jobs etc, but they are still smilling and making most of what they have. Or moaning about I don't have this or that. If only I would have this and that I would be happy? Why are we like that? I know we always (well most of us) try to better ourselves but still... In Jan I lost my dad to cancer. He had so many health issues throughout his life, but not once he would complain about his life. He couldn't work because of his health, but he still remained positive. People always stopped and chat with him, because he had such a positive attitude. My parents divorced when I was 3, so I didn't know him as much as I would want to. Once he was in a hospital and he caught MRSA. They had to ampute his leg from knee down. That didnt stop him from carry on as normal. I left it to late to tell him that I care about him. I live in another country, so I only saw him few times a year. But we would always write to each other. He died a day before I flew home. Since than I feel I should not postpone things and live for today, because you don't know what tomorrow will be like. Also since than even when Im sad or not happy I remind myself, that I want to be positive and make most of each day. But still I catch myself moaning about this and that. ;-)
