Good morning/afternoon/evening, ladies and gentlemen,
Let us take a moment to reflect on the lives we lead. At the very least, you and I can proudly say we are privileged in some way. We have roofs over our heads, food on our tables, and an array of conveniences at our fingertips. It is therefore ironic that we find ourselves complaining. Do you find yourselves grumbling about not being able to get Evian water to go with breakfast? Well, some countries experiencing droughts are clawing for any obtainable source of water.
Perhaps it is correct that way too--humans only see what they do not have.
Today, let us delve into this paradoxical trait of humankind, and why, despite the luxury we find ourselves growing up in, do we refuse to show gratitude for the blessings we have been given.
