Bigger Is Not Always Better

A lot of people believe that the more you have, the easier your life is and the happier you are. Believing it will lead them to the better life, many people want to get more and more. But if you really think about it, bigger is not always better. Sometimes it's the opposite. Sometimes, when you try too hard to get more, simple things change to be complicated. Sometimes, when you focus too much on getting better, you can't be thankful and enjoy what you already have. If that's the case, then what's the point in having more and getting bigger?

One of the things I learn from life is, the quality of your life really can't be measured by the quantity of what you have. If that was true, rich people with a lot of money would be the happiest. But look around you. I still meet a lot of "poor" people because they have nothing but money. Surprisingly, I also meet people who don't really have much, but they look happy and really enjoy their days. They are the people who know to be grateful for the simple things in life. They are the smart people who know that happiness doesn't cost much. They know that happiness is about what we feel and not what we have.

So, every time you feel like complaining for not having more, remember that you can be happy when you are grateful, and your life can be easy when you have the right attitude. It really has nothing to do with how much you have.

Love Languages

Valentine's day is coming soon, and it's the day of love. I think it's a great idea to share something related to love: Love Languages . Have you heard about it before? It's not my idea.

Change the Perspective

One of people who inspire me the most is Nick Vujicic . I believe many of you know about this man. If you don't, well, he's a man with no arms and no legs. Although he has this disability, he still lives his life to the fullest. He swims. He surfs. He married. He does whatever he wants. Even he inspires many people around the world with great stories about his amazing life. Isn't he really a huge inspiration? I'm sure you know what I'm gonna write here. Many things we can learn from him, like being thankful, enjoying life, creating your happiness, or living the life you want no matter what the circumstance is. But I want to talk about his great life from a little bit different thing. He inspired me in one thing when I read his book. If there's one thing I can learn from him, it's that you can't always change your problems, but you can always change the way you see it . You can't always change your problems, but you can always chang

You are what you eat

You know they say, you are what you eat . I totally agree with this saying. The phrase finder says its meaning is "To be fit and healthy, you need to eat good food ". But I guess it's more powerful than that. I personally assume that the "food" here is more about things we put into ourselves, such as what we see, what we think, or what we feel . Just everything we put into ourselves . So, if this world was a restaurant, everything you can see, think, and feel in this world would be the foods. And the main role here is you! Because you would be the customer in the restaurant who choose the foods you want to eat. Whatever you eat, it will always affect your body (your life). That's why it's really important to choose "what you eat", because it's what really shapes you in the end. If you want your life to be better, you should manage what you eat. You can't just consume whatever you see, because not everything you see is
