A few days ago one of my best friends and I were drinking a cup coffee at a local coffee shop, and for some reason we started talking about how much we don't appreciate, how we always want more and it's never enough.
And actually, that's true. I thought about it a lot ever since and actually caught myself not being grateful for the things I have. Like I have a perfectly working iPhone 4, yet I really want the new iPhone 5S. I have about four bottles of toner, yet I want another one because it seems nice and all. Or shopping at the H&M website again, the day after my previous purchase arrived.
These may be small things, well the iPhone is maybe a little bit bigger, but still these aren't things like another house or another car. But, I'm not appreciating the things I DO have. Because I have a lot. And besides those products, I have friends and family.
I feel like a lot of people don't appreciate what they have, and that they could be in a much worse situation. That's why I wanted to make this blogpost. I'm not saying it's a bad thing if you are going to buy a new iPhone, blush or the like. But, you shouldn't forget that you should be grateful for the things you have.
