Change of Heart.

Okay, so this post was going to be all about me being ungrateful and whining for no solid reason. As I sat composing it in my head I mentioned all the minuses in my life. But it dawned upon me, quite suddenly, that the pluses greatly, greatly outnumbered the minuses. I thought I really should appreciate the goodness life has to offer.

Most of us  forget to show gratitude for simple, yet vital, things like... the five senses, the fact that we are well and alive, have a closet full-to-the-brim of clothes... you get the idea. These are the very things a large population of the world craves, and we take for granted.

I live in a city full of glitz and glamour; sky-high buildings, an intricate road network, very posh cars and villas, an abundance of shopping malls and... what not. Yet, there's a dark side to it. The labour camps, the littered streets in the not-so-developed area of the city, the underpaid workers...

This had me thinking furiously. Yours truly is fortunate enough to live in a very serene, green, and well-established residential area. A question arose in my mind as I meditated, what about those who live in those cramped, dirty, smelly streets? They're our ilk. No different than us.

This made me realize how lucky I was. I have, thankfully, health (which is wealth), a comfortable living space, my loved ones close to me, and so, so much more I should be grateful for. Now this was a good enough reason to stop yearning for more, and start being thankful for what I already possess. Now I'll try my level best not to whine and moan, but to be quiet and be contented with what I have. =)

Oh, and...
NEW FOLLOWER! :D:D:D
Thank you, divinetruth. =)
