Recently there has been so many articles circulating around Facebook, on guys trying so hard to be girls, on mothers dragging their children across the road despite onlookers, and many other random subjects. And I just got into my own train of thoughts about things. Things I wished I had. Things I wondered why others always did better than me. I guess it is just in our blood and in human nature to be jealous and not contented easily. We always want what we can't have, not because having that particular thing makes us happy, but because the fact that others have it just makes owning it seem victorious or makes us glorified, in a way? Like you've just started work at some place, and you discovered this ridiculously cheap chicken rice at some quiet place, and after you eat it, you just find it so nice that you began to have it every day. And then one day, when another colleague of yours invites you for lunch, and suggested to lunch over at some mad crowded place, and when you finally got a seat, your colleague went to order Astons and seeing them eat their meal just makes your mouth water. So from then on, you'd probably rush over to order Astons even though it is crowded and expensive. Though that may not be true for everyone but most people would definitely react that way!
I guess what I'm trying to say is just simple - BE CONTENTED. Things suitable for others may not fit into your life as easily as you think. Like, I've always thought about why others can have pretty nails from mani-pedi and I can't, and I'd always want to try it, but I'm someone who has to do housework, and that includes hand-washing my clothes, so spending a hefty sum just to get my nails done would be pretty silly because they wouldn't be as lasting as the ones on girls who don't have to do housework. So contentment is joy too! ♥
