Two days ago, while I was heading for school and there was a traffic jam, again. (What's up with roads being changed every year?!) Thank goodness the driver was too practical to turn the car and follow the others. Passing by that place everyday makes me wonder; and now, for the first time, I was able to pass through it.
It was a rural area, complete with the crops, carabaos and even early-bird farmers. The whole ride made me open-mouthed to the point that I can't stop myself from being amazed yet pitiful every second. I managed to pray for every person or family that I saw living there. It just makes me teary-eyed for experiencing life at its lavish point and I'm not sure if they would ever taste that. But a thought came over me. I'm sure, despite having a simpler life with no technology and luscious foods attached, they are happy with whatever they have.
Well, I'm positive, I won't ever take life for granted - not even a bar of chocolate nor water for bathing. What am I telling? Uh, treasure even the slightest piece you have, it never hurts to be grateful to the Lord for just a simple thing. Most of the time, you're luckier than others who may not have any more than you do.
And oh yeah, love our nature and Mother Earth! Haha. :-)
