5 More Reasons to be Grateful!
Posted by Mush on October 8, 2009
Did you know?
- 923 million people in the world are hungry!
- 16,000 children die every day due to hunger – that’s one every five seconds!
- 880 million people live without adequate supply of water!
- 1.4 billion people live below the poverty line (USD1 per day)!
- 200 million people are unemployed. And at least 20 million more were estimated to become unemployed in 2009!
If we are not one of the above, we have at least five more reasons to be grateful. We can choose to take all the good things for granted; we can continue to complain about the imperfections in our lives and other people; we can focus on all the things that we don’t have. And we are sure to be unhappy, miserable and stressed. Or… we can choose to be happy; we can start acknowledging and being grateful for all the goodness in life, and everything that we do have.
What are you grateful for, today, right now?
