Though it is true, I hate it when people use this sort of thing to guilt trip people, and say they shouldn’t complain because they have all of this. It is very naive to think that life and happiness is so simple, so easy. Of course, I don’t exactly condone self-pitying either.
On a brighter side, it can cheer some people up to make their problems seem more petty. Because of such things also, I think that we should not spend our lives working in a cubicle for some dull corporation simply for money, but to give back to the world which has given so much to us, be it in the form of inspiration, donation, education, or public service or volunteer work. Perhaps not necessarily to those who do not fit this list, but to people in general.
sooo moving and inspiring.
I always told my children to never be envious of what other people have, that as long as we’re all healthy, we’re millionaires.
