After Reading Chia-Ling's post

So I read my classmates post. I thought it was interesting, I took a look at the websites she mentioned. Some of the secrets were very sad. I makes you wonder who the person is. We all complain about things that we go through in life, but after reading these "secrets" I realized that what I have been through does not compare in any way to what a lot of other people go through.

A co-worker of mine sent me an email that had pictures of certain things people have to deal with. For example, the message said: do you find yourself complaining about your transportation system? Then as you scroll down it shows a picture of some some townspeople in Malaysia and the people are trying to cross a river and they are pretty much walking over a tight rope, except the rope isn't tight at all and some of them fall into the river. I found that to be sooo sad. Then another statement says: "find yourself complaining about how old your shoes are" and then when you scroll down you see the feet of little African kids wearing empty plastic 1 liter coke bottles as shoes with strings tied around making them into flip flops. That email was soo sad, after a while I learned to appreciate the little things in life.
