Sometimes we spend to much time thinking of the things we don’t have and the things we want instead of enjoying the things we do have. We should be thankful for all we do have even when we think of I don’t have much just look at what you do have.
You have lots to be thankful for.
Do you have
- a safe and warm place to sleep
- do you have food to eat even if it is not the high quality stuff or eating out all the time
- do you have clothing to wear? It does not have to be name brand.
- do you have a family near you
- do you have a friend
- do you have a job it may not be the job of your dreams but if it pays the bills your blessed
- do you have pets
- do you have a car that will get you from point A to point B?
- do you have shoes on your feet
- did you get to go to high school
See even with just those few things you are already blessed far more than maybe someone else so you should be happy. Even if it is not the brand or desired thing you want but you have it such as cloths, job or car you are blessed.
Do you have a sled for the snow?
I do and I did as a kid to but I also use to use truck hoods to sled on and inter tubes to tractor tires to go sledding on and I was just as happy than as when we got real sleds.
Sometimes simpler times are happier because you just enjoy what you have and don’t make a big deal out of what you don’t.
Enjoy Life
Enjoy life there is so much to learn and see and do you can find happiness in lots of things. It’s fun to day dream about places to go and things we want to accomplish in life and that’s fine to do just don’t forget to live and enjoy the things you have.
Making a bucket list
Make a bucket list and make sure its things that are possible. You could also make a second buck list with things that are a little more out there
My first buck list of places I want to go
- yellow stone national park
- the grand canon
- Niagara falls
- a rodeo in Texas
- a few beaches I have seen in Florida
Those are all possible.
My second buck list is places I would like to go that are less likely.
- Iceland
- irland
- Alaska
- Fiji
those look like fun places to go
oh there’s tones more places I would like to go that I could add to each list but those are just a few as an example.
But in the mean time I sure do enjoy tenseness and use to be myrtle beach but not sure about that beach anymore looking for new beaches to visit that are nice and family friendly.
And there is nothing wrong with dreaming and wishing but don’t forget to live and be thankful for what you have going on right now.
