WHAT YOU DON'T APPRECIATE DEPRE CIATE

Once upon a time there lived a very wealthy man who resided in
Manchester in the UK. This man had two children Tom and Mark.

One day the two boys were assigned duties by their father. Tom's duty
was to trim grasses behind their masionate while Mark was told to wash his
father's car. Their father always gave them presents in equal
measures.

Tom was so thankful to his dad for the present and continued working
hard to make sure grasses are always trimmed in their compound. On the
other hand, Mark was always complaining that what his father gave him
was not enough and started being lazy on washing the vehicle. At time
he used to just wash it just for the sake.

The wealthy man noticed something fishy was going on between his two
sons, Tom was appreciating his gift and working very hard while Mark
was complaining that the gifts weren't enough for him and he started
lazing around.

So one day he called his sons for a meeting to discuss where the
problem was. Mark told his dad that his work was to much and the
presents he has been was too litt
le for him. Antithetically, Tom
appreciated his father and was working extra harder to please the dad.

The man decided to withdraw the job from Mark and told their gardener
to be washing his car. Not only did he withdraw the job, he also
stopped bringing gifts for Mark. Tom started receiving many presents
from his dad and found an opportunity to go to work at his father's
office.

Many of us always complaining about the situations that have embedded
us and we forget to appreciate the positive things that we have. That
ain't to be the case because others are so unfortunate to even
breathing oxygen, they require help.

Sometimes we wish to have a certain thing and yet we are forgetting to
appreciate what we have. Can I tell you something? What you wish to
have will never come to you until you appreciate what you have!h
