Pretty lucky...Be Happy!

As it goes, I can always look at something that someone else has and think yep that would be nice. But I am so silly! I have been blessed with so much, and constantly have to remind myself that there are some people out there that would love to have a portion of what I do. It seems unfair that some people are born into fortunate, rich families, some into middle class (such as myself), and then there are the unfortunate souls who are lucky to have one meal a day. It isn't fair for babies to die, or good people to suffer aimlessly. I have to tell myself that if it happens, it's because God has a plan for that individual. I don't understand so many things, but still must keep my faith in God strong. My mind is nowhere near close to knowing all he knows, so don't worry about it, I have placed myself in his hands, and know what is meant to happen is for the best. Maybe not right away, but in the long run, every action has a greater purpose, every death has bigger meaning, etc. I just gotta stop trying to analyze things I guess. Anyways, I need to stop complaining about mundane things and be happy with what grace has given me. I have food, clothes, a house, friends, loving family, college education, and a job. What else could I need or want? Sure I can think of some outrageously expensive material item to purchase, but what can I take with me when I die? Not an Aston Martin Vantage...nope, I can take the love I've felt and bestowed on others, education can never be taken away from you, so I'm gonna be happy with what I have! I hope some other people could begin to think this way as well.
