"Appreciate what you have"!! Yes, every time, when I in bad situation, I always remind myself "Appreciate what you have". I can not image how the difficult live in the country which scanty of goods and materials. Three weeks ago, in my another class we discussed a top about "one child on laptop" in the world. However, this is our goal to help children have a chance to benefit from the advantages of technology. In fact, for some people, maybe the food, the water, the cloth and education are the thing that they really want!!
Dear Nina, would you please let me know the name of the song, thanks.
I like that video because it remember you the reality of our world. You are here in good conditions but in my case i see many poor people in my country. You can see them in the streets or in different poor places. You help them but sometimes many people just take advantage of that and pretend to be poor to get money. For that reason you sometimes don't know how to do. If you give money to the incorrect person, it is like you are deny money to the poor person who need it. It is difficult to know who is the false poor, but i came to a conclusion. You just give help to whom you beleive needed, if you made a mistake it doesn't matter because you had a good intention to help them. This movie is also a good reminder that you should appreciate what you have. It is very difficult to keep that idea everyday, specially when you pass for bad days.
I found a harsh answer for the video but it the sad reality. This is the address.
