Happiness in Life

You have a Private jet, I have a Bicycle, we both end up at working at maybe different workplaces.

You were born in a first class hospital, I was delivered at home, we both survived.

You went to a private primary school and I went to a public school, we both ended in the same tertiary institution.



You woke up from the bed and I woke from the floor, we both had a peaceful night rest.

Your outfits are all expensive, mine are all simple and cheap, we both still cover our nakedness.

You ate fried rice and roasted chicken, I ate local made food but we both still ate to our satisfaction.

You ride on Lexus jeep, Range Rover, G Wagon, Hummer Jeep and I use public transport but we still got to our various destination.

You may be reading this post from your iPhone 6s, Sony Xperia, Blackberry Q10, Samsung Galaxy 6edge,  and I typed it with my Touch one broken screen, we still see the message.

Lifestyle is not a competition and there are different ways to get a lot of things done, different lanes all leading to the same destination. Simply because your neighbor is doing things faster does not mean you are failing. The book of Proverbs admonishes us that grace of speed is not given to all but we all should pray for God's speed and we will arriv on time.

The tortoise said "Though he moves slowly, but he will get there", meaning slow and steady wins the race.

Happiness doesn't come from having everything, but making the best out of what you have, it's all about how you see yourself. Happiness is not having what you like. Happiness is liking what you have and being content. Hope I spoke to someone? Have a lovely day and know that happiness is a choice
