unsatisfied

People never get satisfied, huh? I am from the Philippines. A small country in southeast Asia. Now, I live in Canada. A country just above the U.S.A. I have been living here since August and have been trying to adjust my life here. Living here is kinda boring. No offence. But when compared to the life I had in the Philippines, this country seems to pale in comparison. One thing I also noticed was that people here seem to complain about things that never does need much improvement. Health care, government, shoot-outs, robberies, drug crap. Believe me, that is nothing to be complained of when you try living in my homeland. Health care? We hadn't had the faintest idea what the hell that was. Government? Your government seems heaven-sent compared to ours. You think you got issues with taxes? Your stupid. Do you know that we pay irrelevant taxes in our country and we feel like we're throwing away our future while paying these taxes. We see nothing blossoming from these monies that we pay. None of the benefits you recieve here is persent in our country. Shoot-outs are a part of our lives there. And it depends whether you are prominent enough to call the attention of the news or you are too "unfamous" that killing you would rarely make front page. Oh! You think your car money has been stolen? Try your bank account emptied by someone unknown. Drugs? You think you got problems? Think again. Why do you keep complaining? Aren't you happy that you experience a life so good here that to us it almost seems like a vacation? Have you compared what you are experiencing to what the Americans, the Russians or the countries in war?
Be satisfied with what you have. . .And remember. . .You can't have everything. . .This is Earth. . .not heaven
