Thankfullness


Aren't we all blind since we choose to close our eyes to the truth. Aren't we all deaf because we can block out what we don't want to hear. Aren't we all dumb since we can choose to not learn. Aren't we all crippled because we want to be supported. If this is people who aren't any of these things then why are we the ones that don't want to help or do anything in the world. There are people who are actually blind and wish to see. There are people who are deaf and want to hear. There are people with special needs that want to take the advantage to learn. There are people that are crippled that want to be able to walk and run and be "normal." So why are you sitting here doing nothing and wallowing in your own issues when you can see, hear, can learn, and can walk/run. So if you think your life sucks just remember to be thankfull. You can listen to the most beutiful music ever and some can't hear it. You can get straight As in school and some may have trouble speaking. You can go and play tag with your friends when others dream that one day they will walk agian. It could be a beautiful day and some people can't see it.
