► I Am Thankful
August 8, 2010 @ 8:43 PM
In life, you will tend to want what you don't have, duh. For example, Gucci handbag, Supra shoes, Adidas watch, an Ipad, Cannon camera, a trip to Las Vegas and the list never ends. When in fact, you only need a few things to survive. Air, water, food. Those are the three basic things you need to live, agree? In fact, some don't even have 2 out of those 3 things. For example, people in poor countries don't have proper water and food for them. But, they still enjoy living. But then, in this modern world, people like us tend to look overboard and have the urge to own everything. Well, I am not saying I am a saint, not wanting to own the things I just said. In fact, I am one of them who wants to own most of the things! I have a want-list too. But, I am ashamed of myself, wanting things that I don't need. Hell, I want a camera, a purple watch, a trip to the holy place with the family, my own room and more! But, I know I can't get those stuffs unless I work for it. Also, I am ashamed of myself wanting all those not-so-important stuffs as most of the people in the world don't have the stuffs that I've already own, and they don't/never complain.The reason why I always think of those who are less fortunate than I am is because, I was brought up that way. I was taught to think of those who are not as lucky as I am. And, I am advising all of you to do the same. Its actually best for you, one way or another. But, who am I to tell you to do that, right? In my opinion, it makes me appreciate my family, friends and the things I already have a hell lot more than I expected. But, sometimes I just can't control myself, like what they call it in malay "my nafsu". Yeah well, we're human. We all do stupid mistakes everyday. So, right now I am training myself not to want the things that I fancy. If I do, work for it to earn the money and go get it. I am so-very-the thankful for having such wonderful and out-of-the-world awesome family&cousins. And also not forgetting beyond-fun, crazy and caring friends! I love JBOT and 4C ttm. Like, seriously. I love each and every on of you, eventhough they're irritating at times. Hehehehe Went out with lovelies yesterday. Will post pictures once they're uploaded by Aisah on Facebook. kbye, i love you muacks! |
