Be thankful for what you have!

The holiday has been TOO LONG for sure. I am bored to death everyday. Seriously.. 3 months? I mean, when I have to go to school, I always complained that I want holiday. And when the holiday comes, I want to go back to school. You know what that means? Human are never satisfied with anything. Even if they have everything.. they still want more. But what can I say? That's just the nature of human being right?

I know that it's not good to be greedy. Right now, I'm thankful for my life. I have to say I live better than most people. I have great family n stuff. But you know what.. I'm not satisfied just yet. I know I should be thankful for what I have and not complaining. But in practice, that's not as easy as it sounds. Lately, all I've been doing is browsing through korean forums. Looking at those actresses.. I wonder to myself. Man,, I wish I could be one of them. Well from the outside it seems like they live a good life. Not only that.. the fact that they are damn pretty makes me jealous. They have the perfect face, the perfect body etc etc. I mean.. who doesn't wanna be like that? Then, I look at youtube. I see so many talented people out there. That also makes me jealous. People with great music talent, great voice, just simply very talented. Who doesn't wanna be that as well? These things made me wonder a lot.

I know that everyone has their own struggle. That's just life. Although you seem to be happy, there must be something that you struggle with. I guess, the point is, as a human being, we are never satisfied with what we have. We always want more and more. We sometimes compare ourselves with many people. And you know what the outcome is? stress! You become stressed out over little things. So I guess.. the lessons here are..

1. Be thankful and satisfied with what you have
2. Don't compare yourself with other people, you never know what they're going through

Everyone is unique in their own way, there are always pluses and minuses within everyone. I guess we have to look at the bright side in anything. I'm still learning about these things. I guess I have put these concepts into practice.
