Be Appreciative

When you live in an apartment or a house, you have a floor and a carpet to
walk smoothly. You have a roof over your head to prevent rain, snow and so
on. You have four corners and walls around you to protect yourself from
harmful things. And most importantly, you are warm inside your home if it is
winter, and you are fresh if it is summer.

Money does not make you happy. It is true. Of course, we will use the
money to pay bills, water bills, rent, buy groceries, and the stuff we need. We
should save some money to help our parents and so on. The better way is to
give your money to the homeless. Homeless people do not have the
opportunity to have more protection. Like home, food, or even good clothes
they have. We believe that when we give some food or money to the
homeless, happiness will come back to us. When we have a little change, we
can use it to buy snacks, drinks, and anything you want for a little price.
Don’t spend your money, you should save it for better future use.

Let's have faith in God. God is the one who gives us happiness, health and
more. Remember, we have eyes to see, ears to hear, the nose to breathe, the
mouth to be able to eat or drink, we have two legs to be able to jog or walk
and we have two arms and hands to be able to use stuff like a bottle of water
to drink. We should be thankful for that because some people were born
without one of those.

Don’t complain about important things and it is not a healthy habit to

complain in front of your parents. They gave their best to you. You should
smile and thank them. Please, spend the time with your parents before it is
too late. We can't live forever. Quit thinking about the money and start
thinking about positivity and happiness.
