Are you the type of person who always complains like your salary is low? Studying annoys you? You don't have a new pair of shoes? You chose the food you ate if you don't like the food you just throw it? Are you that kind of person? There were things that made me realize this past few days when I watch those people in Africa that suffer soo much. Some children uses the sand just to write their names because they don't have paper to use. Most of them beg for them to be able to eat they really need to work hard inorder for them to survive. And most of them doesn't have anything eventhoug a pair of shoes/slippers they are barefooted, they don't have a choice but to accept what lifes bring to them. Upon observing around me I am thankful that I have this transitory lifetime..I am lucky that I have much more than what I need to be content. I had learn how to appreciate my life especially those little things that come in my way. Are you contented on what you have right now?

It is a normal human habit to complain most of the time. Even when things are going good, we would still do so. I have come to realize that complaining has done nothing good at all. It does not move me forward. In fact, it sinks me further. So, I learn to appreciate each day, the things I have to do and the people around me.
