Remember: If you are reading this story, there is one
important thing that is true for you. And it is that you
can read. And not just this, you also have enough food to
eat and, most likely, you are in good health. If all these
are actually true for you, note that there are millions of
children who sleep hungry at night because they have no
food to eat. Then, there are millions who cannot read like
you can. And there are millions of children who do not
have good health. So, instead of feeling bad at
something you don’t have that your friend has – like a
new dress or an expensive video game – be thankful for
the very important things you have in life. Don’t feel
envious of anyone who has more than you, because there
are countless others who do not have even one percent
of what you may have.
