Being Thankful

Why do people say how thankful they are when things are going good or when things are extremely bad for others?

Let me see where I could start,

I’m thankful for all the things I don’t have and couldn’t get growing up and don’t have right now.

I’m thankful for that time the lady didn’t catch me on the slide when I was daycare.

I’m thankful for being laid off at the job I thought was my worse and favorite job. All the negative shit that happened there like the backstabbing, being under paid and over worked.

I’m thankful for the times I felt hurt by someone. The people that walked out my life with no explanation. The ones that kicked me while I was down or talked down to me or my name because I didn’t fit their standards. Oh I can’t leave out the haters and people that painted a negative picture of me and others believed it.

I’m thankful for those days that I sit around bored out.

I’m thankful for all the bullshit that I experienced in my life and will experience.

My point is, you can’t appreciate the good without experiencing the bad therefore you should appreciate the bad things also. Just think, your life could be shitty right now but there are much worse things that could be happening to you or to the people you care for. Instead of boo’hoo’n, why not try to find some positive, even if it’s the fact that you are able to even try to think positive. You could be a vegetable.
