Which one do you like ?

I find it surprising when I asked some one in the village if they ever want to get out of this suburban life and move to the city, the answer was No. They told me they're already happy with what they have and they don't wanna risk it.
I think they got their point.

Let me explain that this way. When you already feel satisfied and happy with the things around you, do we care what others are thinking ? Yes, we do ! The fact is we  always put other's judgement into our consideration. "You should have done better than that" , "It's not enough, work harder to make more money" , "No you'd better get a new job", "You should dump him/her. He/she's not good for you", etc .We care too much about what others think, that's how we often lose our existing happiness. Then, we will moan with our friends "I feel bored and tired with this life", "I haven't smiled and laughed for one month". Yeah, we're the creatures who love moaning - moaner !

I guess it's true that when we're in a real tough situation, all we can see is a glass half empty. But it's the other half that is the motivation for us to live on. Well, I'm not denying the fact that what we're lacking of is the reason for us to work hard and become more civilised. The world always needs civilising day by day. And those villagers said so because they're not able to change their lives. Yeah, that may be right.

However, the main purpose of this post is to help you see what you are holding. So each time you feel disappointed in this damn life, just take a look at those things. Your life has so many things in there that need to be treasured.

About those villagers, their conditions are worse than ours, but surely their lives are happier. So I don't think moving to a city is a good idea for them, city life will eventually take away their bright smiles like the way it has ever done to us.
