Today I went to work and i felt super blessed because 10 minutes into my shift i was watching the news and the reporter told me, I felt as if it was almost personally, thata fuck load of people are losing their jobs.Here I am, a good for nothing 17 year old trouble maker from Bergen County, Jersey, and I have something that thousands upon millions of people in the United States might kill for just to put food in they’re families mouths. I really don’t deserve alot of the luxeries that i have.
The fastest lesson I ever learned was that you should never take what you have for granted. That’s the point i’m trying to get across. If everyone just took 2 seconds out of their day to just stop and think about everything that they have the world would go one of two ways. One, people would help out their fellow man alot more, or, the less fortunate would say “we don’t have shit, lets do something about this and better ourselves”. Now don’t get me wrong, I am in no way, shape, or form saying that everybody thats ever been less fortunate deliberatly put themselves in that position. I know from experience that, that is far from the truth. However, I am saying that some people in that position have never decided to put forth even the smallest effort in bettering themselves. Which is why I look at my house and say “I have a family who cares enough to put a roof over my head, food on my table, clothes on my back, and glasses on my face so I can clearly see that I am, like many other people, blessed to have what i have. Take a number and learn a lesson, for all of our sakes. It’s the least you can do.
