Happiness is making the best of yourself

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

You went to a private primary school, 
I went to a public school, but
we both ended in the same high school.



You woke up from the bed 
and I woke from the floor, 
but 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 your own car, 
I use public transport, 
but we still got to our various destination.

You may be reading this post 
from your Sony xperia, 
BB Z10, Q10, Samsung Galaxy 
7edge, IPhone6+ 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. 

Just because your neighbor 
is doing things faster, 
it does not mean you are failing.

Happiness doesn't come 
from having everything, 
but making the best out 
of what you have; 
it's all about how you see yourself.
