    A Little Gratitude

    You know what?

    You’re sitting in front of a computer with internet connection, with a roof over your head.
    You got water on tap, access to food, electricity to power your appliances and clothes to wear.

    Your family is safe, you’ve studied at a school, you probably have a job or at least your country has opportunities to provide jobs and you probably also have a car (or access to public transport of some sort).

    How lucky are you?

    Don’t worry I didn’t hit my head on anything. I’m just giving out some gratitude and hoping others out there who are reading this also know how lucky they are.

    Some of you might have debts up to your eyeballs, or have just been laid off. Some of you might drive a leaky car or struggling to make ends meet. Some of you might be poor students or parents trying to figure out how to put food on the table. You might be envious of the “haves” but you are a “haves” yourself without knowing it.
