Two friends discussing about their current circumstances:
friend A: "Dude...my job is too boring, I just wanna move out of it!"
friend B: "even mine is quite boring, it pays well...but my boss is too fussy. And dude...atleast you are living in your hometown, with your family...but I am not! I don't want to live in this city"
friend A: "hmmm...but there are lot of restrictions when you live with your family, I would love to live in a different city, it's all too monotonous here"
friend B: "may be...and you know I'm too pissed off because of my current relationship, that girl is quite possessive and sometimes I feel she just expects too much out of me...this is so irritating, I wanna move out of this"
friend A: "dude...I think you are lucky that you have someone in your life, I am longing to be in a relationship, it feels too wonderful to be in love"
What did you notice in the above conversation? These friends are just complaining for whatever they have in their lives. The one who is away from family, craves for it and the other craves for freedom. Though their jobs pay well...but still you are blaming for one thing or the other. The one in love wants to get rid of it, and the other is complaining about the lack of love. Disatisfaction...complaints...frustration...Phew!!!
Is this the way to live life? Certainly not! Life is meant to be enjoyed...and appreciated in every possible way. To change the things, you need to change your thoughts! Rather than complaining about lack of things, appreciate the things that you have. These friends above have lot of good things to be appreciative of, they both have jobs to sustain their lives well. One has his family to be with, then the other has a good chance to build new friendships. The one who is complaining about his relationship, must appreciate his life to bestow him with somone who loves him so much, someone who values him more than her own life!
Now, think about your life. I am sure you must also be complaining about lot of things in your life. But have a clear look at your life, and you will see great things that deserve your appreciation. Appreciate your family, your friends, your colleagues. When you spend time in nature, appreciate the beauty of nature, appreciate the coolness of refreshing air, appreciate the music of flowing water, and appreciate sweet melody of singing birds. Appreciate your life for giving you so much. And you know what, appreciation will come back to you in many folds. You will begin to receive appreciation for your work in your office, you will be appreciated for the love and care you show towards your family and friends. The life will give you even more things to be appreciative of, and will deliver great opportunities for which you will get phenomenal appreciation.
Make appreciation an integral part of your life...and witness the wonders of appreciation in every day of your life!
