My random thoughts

Life is something no one should miss. Take time to notice your surroundings, and take time to thank your lucky stars. You may think your life sucks, well think of those that have less than you. Think of those that don't have a warm bed, have no food, and have no parents. Next time when you say you're starving, think, are you really starving? Being in a country where you can speak up, where you don't have to worry if you are still going to be alive tomorrow, where you have many apportunities, is a good life.

I want to you not to feel sorry for those that have less than you, I want you to care about them, and think about them. Sure they might not have more than me or you, but that doesn't mean that they will be sad. They might not have a mommy or a daddy but they have hope. They have faith. Believing that something better will come along and give them more than they ever imagined they can have. Those hopes do get filled. Do you know when? When people go throught their clothes and instead of throwing them out, they give their clothes to them. Instead of just watching TV for the summer, those people go and help out. They go to soup kitchens and help out. They give to charities. They volunteer their time, not because they need the hours to graduate, but because it will make them feel good. That's a better life. Knowing that you are making a difference. Don't be ignorant, don't be selfish, and don't be mad. I didn't do this to point out flaws, I did it because it needs to be done. If I don't do it, and you don't do it then who will?


Ending thought: Take time to enjoy your world, your life, and your destiny.
