Be graceful

Our generation apparently has everything healthy and where they seem to be socially connected, they are mentally disturbed and isolated, why is that so? Why after every blessing, every healthy body part, everything still intact do we still feel as if our life could be a lot better and we just aren’t contented. Our generation has everything, but they still find things to be sad about, to grieve over, to just be alone and feel bad about their selves. It is all because WE think that we could have had a lot better than what we have, a prettier face, a better life, and better anything. We are in the depths of being ungrateful. We have made idols that we worship everyday yet we claim that one lord we praise. We are an independent unit in a dependent network of people in our lives yet we are so fierce and mean that only independence is what we see and misuse. How can we be so sure of what we are doing? Where is the measuring scale of right and wrong? How can we answer ourselves at night, on the couch that what we did or said was right or wrong? What about the people below us? What about people who are still getting through everyday just to find something to eat, to live in a place where they have exactly nothing and no one? Is it that our ungratefulness have decayed us? Or maybe we all lack the capability to be graceful enough to thank the blessings we have in our lives. Being contented with present would surely get our generation out of this unreal pool of sadness we have surrounded ourselves with.
