Other people having it tougher

Lately, the news is just not so good.

Still, I think being content with what we have is very important and continue moving forward to strive for a better future.

There are always going to be tough times, and I’m always aware there are other people having it tougher.

It might not be good to think this way, but it does help me get through whatever misfortune that comes my way.

Thinking that it could be worse, others had it worse. Although I do still feel sad and am affected by those misfortunes. But at least, it helps me to “switch” my mind to the positive side of things. Being content and being present to solve the challenges or get over the misfortune.

I have learned to not envy or be jealous of others so much, because I also know there are so many others that would envy or be jealous of me.

It helps me to stay present when misfortunes happen. And being present is good enough as of now.
