ITS OKAY TO WANT MORE!!!

[its-kg]

Seriously, it's not a bad thing to be an Oliver twist.

After all he wasn't being avaricious, he was just hungry💁.

I came across a quote this morning and it really stirred up some residual thoughts.

This was the quote.👇👇

Yes, honestly I don't like that quote😒

I also don't like that quote that people tend to quote when you want something more than you already have, the one they say;

"While you're busy crying you don't have shoes, someone is crying they don't have legs. So be grateful with what you have."

Or when they say that the person with no legs is more content than you with legs but want shoes😒😒😒💁💁💁😒😒💁😒

IT'S JUST ANNOYING

I mean, c'mon, should I be satisfied with a 'C' because others got an 'F'?

You wouldn't say I was complaining or jealous of other people's stuff, you'd tell me to work harder right?

Then why is it a different response when it comes to life?

I mean what kind of psychology is that?🤷🤷🤷
Should you be grateful that your situation is worse or that it'd get better?

Should you be happy that someone's worse off than you?

I mean why should your happiness or joy or GRATITUDE come from another person's suffering, from the idea that another person is suffering more than you are?🤷🤷🤷

I MEAN WHAT'S UP WITH PEOPLE?

Honestly people, I like good things and yes I'm an Oliver Twist for the blessings @iamthemembrane 's quote.

So this is my take on the matter and I've summed it up to one quote😤

THE FACT THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS IT WORSE DOESN'T MEAN I SHOULDN'T WANT BETTER😤

So don't be afraid of what people say when you're going for more, be content with who you are now and what you have now, go for what you want the right way, don't desire to be like someone else or covert and be jealous of what someone else has, just work to get yours.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME VENT

Hmmn
I really love this post.
It really did inspire and spur me.....
Especially your statuses.....

Some people would rather look for a situation they are better off and bank on it instead of trying to be better.
Cheers
