Feeling depressed and moody. Came across something today, just decided to share it:
If you woke up this morning
with more health than illness,
you are more blessed than the
million who won't survive the week.
If you have never experienced
the danger of battle,
the loneliness of imprisonment,
the agony of torture or
the pangs of starvation,
you are ahead of 20 million people
around the world.
If you have food in your refrigerator,
clothes on your back, a roof over
your head and a place to sleep,
you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank,
in your wallet, and spare change
in a dish someplace, you are among
the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
If you can read this message,
you are more blessed than over
two billion people in the world
that cannot read anything at all.
You are so blessed in ways
you may never even know.
I believe many must have read this for several times, but I think it touches me differently everything I read it. Just some thoughts-provoking words. It's not the fully version, I just took out what I thought would be more relevant.
The ulcer still hurts like mad, probably because I didn't try anything to cure it. I didn't dare to try salt, because Im fully aware that the pain, though is only momentary, but is unbearable for me.
Sometimes I know there's something that I can do to ease or stop the pain altogether, which is beneficial for the long run, but I'm not doing it because I can't take the short term pain. It's too much to bear.
It's not the end of the world.
Tomorrow will still be here..
