How many times do you halt your busy
schedule and appreciate what you have? There are many things we should be
grateful for, but nowadays, we take most of these things for granted.
"We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives." -John F. Kennedy
When I was a kid, I took almost everything
for granted, but as I grew up, I learn to enjoy every little thing that life
could offer.
Take education for example… Here in
Mauritius, school is compulsory but some people don’t realize how lucky they are
to be literate; some people might think that being educated is part of their basic
Rights, but, it is more likely to be a gift, an opportunity, a privilege…
“An attitude of gratitude brings great things.” -Yogi Bhajan
There are tons of things to be grateful for:
your life, your family and friends, your health, nature, technology, to be able to read
this post right now… some people don’t even have a decent place to live and
here you are, at your desk, using a PC or cell with an INTERNET CONNECTION!!!
“We often
take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.” - Cynthia
Ozick
Have you ever noticed the more you get
familiar to someone or some situation in your life, you are more likely to take
it for granted? Sometimes, we ought to give more attention and show more
gratitude to these things…
Be more thankful for this amazing world we are living in... Even if sometimes you are going through a tough time, remember there's always tons of reasons to be grateful for in life.
