Stories Be Thankful For What You Have Got In life… Published 4 years ago on December 6, 2020 By NewsViews Network Views: 2,321 Read Time: 2 minutes It was early in the morning, my friend and I were going to the office. We were traveling in a car and were stuck in a jam. Suddenly, my friend said in a frustrating tone- “Ye kya life hai yaar. Subah utho, office jao. I work so hard, and I am paid nothing.” Don’t you enjoy your work? And I guess you get a decent salary too. -I replied calmly. I don’t know. But all my batchmates earn more than me. And they are at a pretty senior level. – he said in a daunting tone. I did not know how to respond, so I kept mum. We were about to reach the office when we saw an old uncle trying hard to push a cart on a slope. He was on the other side of the traffic signal, and we saw a few people rushed to push his cart. Uncle Ji was happy with the support, thanked people, and went away riding his cart. My friend and I were witnessing the incident. Suddenly, as the lights turned green, I told my friend- Don’t you feel lucky that you have a fixed income, a car to travel, and a decent job? “Yes, thank god”– he replied. Ever since he has been more grateful for his work. **Be thankful for what you have got in life. Don’t envy what others have got in theirs. And you will be happy forever** Thoughts?
