be grateful.
Last week we learnt new phrases/sentence from chinese lessons again, and this particular sentence really got me thinking.
It basically means, beauty is everywhere. If we can't see it, it doesn't mean beauty doesn't exist, it just means that we're lacking the ability to notice the beauty around us.

Well, I think that's true. I think it's quite sad how everyone is always complaining about how they don't have this, don't have that - and I'm not just talking about material goods, I'm talking about everything, including GPAs, cooler parents (haha?!), cooler friends,...
And of course I'm guilty of this as well, I'm constantly complaining :P

But honestly speaking, I think it's just stupid. Why bother comparing? I mean, everyone is different, you can't be living someone else's life.
And please for goodness sakes, be grateful for what you have already. Stop. Asking. For. More. Because once you start, you can't stop. You'll desire for greater, bigger things. At times I really can't stand it when people keep doing that. I mean there's nothing wrong but, can't they just be more sensitive? The fact that we're alive and kicking is a blessing in itself already. The fact that we have people to love, people who love us - it's God's gift to us.

Of course I'm not saying that everyone is lucky and blessed with good fortune yay the world is all nice and good, I'm the most fortunate being on earth - no. My point is that, no matter where you stand, just keep in mind that there are always those below you. Think of how much you have over them, not how much you don't have.

Be appreciative. Be thoughtful. Be grateful for all that's been given to you.
