Basic Necessities

Coming from a first-world nation it can be hard to be happy with what you have. You are always looking for new things, new technologies; and being disappointed when you miss out on them. But what a lot of people take for granted are basic necessities like having a roof over your head or having water to bathe in and drink. Even in first-world countries, there are still people who struggle to come across these basic necessities. 

Never take anything for granted. You may be upset because you consider yourself poor and you can't go out with your friends to see new movies or go out to dinner but do you realize how lucky you actually are? Lucky enough to have all your bills paid off. Lucky enough to have a job. Lucky enough to have friends you can even talk with and associate with.

Everyone has some shining light that they can be holding and letting burn bright in their life, instead, we seek out the darkness.

Don't let the darkness consume you. 

Be grateful for your basic necessities.
