Sometimes, we don't really know how fortunate we are...

Haha. Today, something funny but sad happened. It may be really funny, but please dont laugh. Haha. Here goes. Ok. I went out, and bought chocolate. Its like kindda those roundy roundy types. Haha. So my mum, sis and me each took one. Then I was eating mine halfway, this boy around 12 or 13 came and took my chocolate from me and ate it. I was totally caught by surprise, because it was eaten halfway. He only had one arm, and was very dirty and ragged. He left, running away and the all of us looked at one another and laughed. But after that I thought and thought. Its just like, when we are fighting for nice clothes, money, handphones and other things that we don't need, we aren't even sastisfied. Even if we had a handphone, we want a better one. If we had clothes, we want prettier and more expensive ones. And while we are fighting for these, they are fighting for their life, and their survival needs. Its kindda sad to this of this, and somehow I know God arranged it. It strengthened my desire to become a missionary. And I was glad, because I know I had gotten the right ambition.

This is a note for everyone! Please know how fortunate you are, and appreciate your family and friends. :D I've really realised the meaning of life... ...
