Learning outcome:
Are you unhappy? Some people are in worse situations than you.
Having a low salary? How about her?
Not enough friends? How about him?
Feel like giving up? Look at this man..
Do you have many burdens? He's still going on..
Complaining about our transport system? How about them?
Complaining about society not being fair? Are your problems comparable to her?
Studies are boring and a waste of time? They are enjoying it!
Hate veggies? They are starving!
Complaining about not enough entertainment? Look at him..
Whining about not having nike or addidas shoes? This fellow makes his own.
Always wanted a better night's rest? They sleep on gravel roads..
When a poor person dies of hunger, it has not happened because God did not take care of him or her.
It has happened because neither you nor I wanted to give that person what he or she needed.' ~Mother Teresa
If we aren't the soldiers on the front line fighting against suffering amongst our brothers and sisters, or the ones assisting them from the barracks of charity, we can at the very least, stop blaming God for trivial mishaps, and start being grateful and share the blessings He showers upon us with the people around us.
