If you think about it, there are many things in our life that we have no control over. One being our childhood and the way we grow up. I was watching tv earlier today and saw a family volunteer at an orphanage in Thailand. It just made me tear up a little. I know that sounds really emotional and unnecessary, but I just felt really blessed. Blessed that I have luxuries they don't. It's really unfortunate that when we're children we can't decide if we want to live in a big house and/ or have all the toys we want. That's decided by our parents. And if you don't even have parents it's decided by whoever ends up taking care of you.
I think in a way we are all really blessed. There will always be someone who is less fortunate than us. And it sucks because sometimes we have to think about that to realize how much we really have. Although sometimes I feel frustrated because I have to work harder than others to get what I want. But that's just out of comparison. I'm sure that there is another person who feels that same way towards me.
Nowadays we all have this desire to be rich and plentiful. Have big houses and lots of money.
