Lesson Learned

Tonight I realized how fortunate I am.

I am so grateful for everything that I have in my life.

Some things that I am so fortunate to have:

1. My parents: They mean the world to me and I don't know

what I would do without them! They're my main support

system and make me happy every day. They are the best

role models anybody could have, and when I get

older I hope I could be as successful and caring as they are.

2. My siblings: My sister encourages me to try

my hardest and gives me the best advice!

She is the best sister anybody could ask for!

My brother is one of my best friends, I could

talk to him about anything and he is such a

great role model to me and makes me try new things!

3. My friends: I feel like I have finally found all my true friends

who actually love me for who I am, and I don't have to be fake

in front of them. It doesn't matter how I dress or what I look like

because they still like me for my personality. When I have a bad

day they are always there for me and can always put a smile

on my face. They make me laugh every time I am with

them and I can talk to them about anything!

4. Everything: I am so fortunate for everything I have right now.

I am lucky to have a house, my own room, and my own bed.

I have realized that many people can't afford some of the

necessities that we all have, and it makes me feel how

fortunate I am to have those and plus many other

things I don't really need. I look at my closet and say I

don't have anything to wear when many kids only have

an outfit or two. I look into my fridge and say there's

nothing to eat when there is a fridge and pantry

full of food. When there are kids starving all across

the world. I say I feel so sick when all I have is a sore

throat when kids and adults are dying from cancer

or any other illness. When I'm upset about the slightest

thing I should be thinking of kids who have to see their

parents getting a divorce or who have just lost a loved one.

Tonight I realized how fortunate I am to have

the little things in life, you should

feel the same way.
