#be grateful
Be grateful for the good times and keep the faith during the bad times. Stay positive when life gives you every reason to be negative.

Be happy and proud when the hours put in at the gym pays off and you get your ass grabbed when you’re working out!
When a man shows enough interest in you to keep you around for a while, it’s a good idea to present him with various toys for him to play with to keep him appreciating you!

i used to think happiness was found at the peak of a mountain, something I’d only achieve after a lifelong, arduous climb. but when i stopped to catch my breath, that was the moment i found the creek. and i realized happiness was found in the pebbles, each step i took over the water. it wasn’t atop a castle so far away as to be unreachable, unimaginable; it was right where i stood, beneath my feet.
I am grateful for the wonderful, supportive people in my life. I am grateful for delicious food to eat. I am grateful to be able to feel things.
My advice to those who feel down about things not going their way, for those who complain when something little goes wrong, or just for those who are sad about something: be grateful. We may not get a good grade on a test, or we may lose service on our phones every once in a while, or go to a restaurant that doesn’t have wifi, there’s even a chance our car may break down on the side of the road. In the big picture, those are such minute problems. One of my buddies lives in a trailer and doesn’t have a good paying job. He said to me one day, “Dude, my life is so shitty.” Well, I looked back at him and said, “You have a roof over your head.” It may seem dramatic that I’m implying he should be happy just because he has a roof over his head. Yeah, it would be nice to live in a house. But the point I’m trying to convey is that some people live in dirt huts. Even worse, some people don’t have a home at all. So may I say this..next time you run out of hot water in the shower, be grateful you have a fresh source of water to clean yourself off with, even if it may be cold for a day. Be grateful you have clean clothes to change into each day, or the opportunity to get an education and pursue your dream. I’m not trying to undermine the fact that people have bad days, because we all do for varieties of reasons. What I’m getting at, is that if you appreciate the blessings of all these little things, it can better your mood so easily. Our society takes so many things for granted these days, so it’s a good reality check every once in a while and account for the all the things we’re so lucky to have. Many people can’t imagine the luxuries we have at our disposal. Be grateful.
