Think And Thank

in #motivation6 years ago

Have you gotten to a place you can call "destination" yet? Maybe not, but the truth is, you have left where you used to be.. now that's the spirit - We may not have gotten to where we had expected to be, but no doubt, we have made some considerable progressions which have taken us from where we used to be, and for that reason, we should be thankful.

Even though we could be faced with some forms of challenges, but believe me, it could have been worse, and for that reason, you need to be thankful. Even being alive is not by reason of your intelligence, neither is it because of your strength - if it was; it might shock you to know that people stronger than you have gone.

Each day we live, we should know that; any negative situation notwithstanding; we are still better off than some people out there, and for that, you should be thankful. Maybe this would give you an insight: What you call "negative situations" which your are passing though right now could be someone else's most coveted and ernest heart desires.

A story was told of a man that was tired of life and the only option left for him was suicide (which isn't even an option anyway). So on the day he was to take his life, he picked up a rope and headed straight to the forest - with the thought that he would hang himself there and no one would locate him.

While he was knotting the rope on top of the tree, a man that was under the tree looked up and beckoned to him; hey man! before you kill yourself, please would you be kind enough to give me your cloths so I can go back to the city? I've been here because I can't afford even cloths to wear. These words sank deep into the man's heart and he realized that there are some people he's actually better than.

So guys; if you think deeply, you would definitely have at least one reason to be thankful.

Thanks for reading

Peace on y'all
