To make the children understand how to not take anything in their life for granted
CLICK OF THE TOPIC:
We always take relationships for granted, when you don't take things for granted, you will count your blessings.
ABOUT THE TOPIC:
We always take relationships for granted. Learn to treat every individual as a part of the whole and feel gratitude towards him or her; then you will never take anyone for granted. You will then worship and respect everyone for being a part of existence.
Alright, now we have the two lists in front of us. It is now up to us to decide which of the lists we are going to focus on. Are we are going to look at the things not given to us and make our lives dull and dead, or look at the things that have been showered on us and enjoy, making our lives beautiful? It is purely our choice!
A person who takes everything for granted will look at the second list with greed and discontentment. When you are greedy, you will automatically feel only discontented, because there is no end to your greed and therefore contentment can never happen in you! Anyhow, this person totally misses out on the joy of life that is there is the first list.
Everything that comes your way, whether big or small will seem ordinary and you will only wait for the next thing to arrive. Then when the next thing arrives that will look ordinary because we are already thinking of the next thing. Whereas, a person who is always in gratitude, will not even know that the second list exists! He only knows to feel and breathe gratitude every moment. Life is an eternal celebration for him. He will be so light and joyful and a treat to watch. He will exude a beauty that is unique unto himself.
