being gratful
Everything life gives us, we have to feel grateful for. All we have to do is close our eyes for a moment and think about all we possess and enjoy. Think about the small steps that we take every day. we often ought to be greedy and thoughtless, as we have no consideration whatsoever to what mother nature provide for us .
Why are human beings not considerate? Why never credit what they have until they lose it? Every now and then we should take a break, connect with our inner and seek some internal Pease. And only by simply closing our eyes and trying to get used to darkness for a while, we realize how awful blindness can be. Then, we should feel grateful and happy to be able to see the world.
Another thing we should feel grateful for is people we love and who love us back. Family and friends are one of the most important if not the most important ingredient in life. In the capitalist society we are living in, people don’t have time for each other, they are preoccupied with so much, a thing that takes them away from enjoying each other, creating bonds, feeling the warmth of providing and receiving love.
