Great words. Yea, I should be alot more thankful than I am..

 

I rarely bitch, It could all go wrong so easily.

But it sucks that you have to watch so many other people suffer to realize it!

 

i measure my success by the diffrence between my suffering and others. Im not too sucessful.

 

You should measure your success by what you gave up to achieve it.

 

or with a ruler.

 

or the measuring tape inside your pants zipper.

 

The simple fact that we are even able to read this thread shows how fortunate we are. There are plenty of people with no internet, no power, no food, and no hope. Every day, I look forward to the ups and the downs of life, knowing that no matter how bad things seem, there are millions upon millions of other people in the world in much worse conditions than me.

 

I am thankful for the air in my lungs everytime I wake up.

I am always very aware how fragile life really is.

I know alot of dead people.

 

Damn Straight. I usally think about this sort of thing when I go on a long trip. It just makes me realise how big the world is and I am just one tiny drop in the ocean. So my problems don't seem so big anymore...

 

Well put.
