Recently, I've been watching a few good movies which include "The pursuit of happyness" and "Cinderella Man" that I really like the most. Both are about how a man fights for life and for the only man's dignity. It was very encouraging, enlightening and inspiring.
Many times, realizing it or not, I whined about small, little, unimporant, no-big-deal-things happened around. I get upset easily with unnecessary things. I believe it all comes to be small matters when you really have no time to think about, but fight for bread and butter, getting to survive for the day. Yes, I should be grateful of what I have and this should always be my reminder whenever I am complaining or whining about life again.
"When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out--The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--It's when things seem worst that you must not quit."~ Unknown
Yup, it was finally sold, my Jade Wonder! I complained a lot about it for past few weeks because it gave me so much troubles for repairment that cost me few hundreds while having hard time to sell it off. Now, it was gone and I felt released but at the same time, I think I should be thankful for having it to bring me around for the last 15 months. One good thing about him was he was a gas saver. Goodbye, Jade wonder, though I didn't really treat you well (I hardly bathed him =P), you're my first asset in United States.
