Appreciate every single thing you have!

This is one of the best I have read in a long time. .




One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the
express purpose of showing him how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"
"It was great, Dad."
"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.
"Oh yeah," said the son.
"So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father.
The son answered:
"I saw that we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them."
The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."
Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.
Appreciate every single thing you have!
Pass this on to friends and acquaintances and help them refresh their perspective and appreciation.






"Life is too short and friends are too few."

Inspirational Qoute from Steve jobs - Founder of Apple Co.

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that i loved what i did.
And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. You work is going to fill a large part of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is a great work.

And the only way to do great work is to love what you do, and like any great relationship,just gets better and better as the years roll on.
Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking, Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.

Do your job well, whatever your life work's is, do it well
