Long...but, please read? :3
So, today while I was driving with my family, I really needed to pee. We stopped at this road house, so I could go to the toilet. I went with my mum [she needed to go too] and as we entered a man [who ran the shop, I'm pretty sure] said 'Oh good, more customers!' My mum and I felt so awkward, as we only needed to go the toilet. We asked them, and they said yes. As we were washing our hands after we'd been, we saw a sign saying 'Please pay a small contribution and support us with our shop. These toilets are expensive to run.' Mum and I were embarrassed as we walked out of the road house, because we didn't buy anything and just used the toilet.
it made me think that people actually don't have much. we all say 'i'm happy with my life.' but deep down, we all secretly hate something about us. we all secretly wish that we could be prettier. sometimes we wake up in the morning and think 'god, i'm so lucky.' and smile. then the next morning you wake up thinking like you're worth nothing. every hears it all the time how their are people 'worse off' than you. but honestly, we don't really feel it. how important money is, how important food is, how important everything is, supplies. because we are lucky, and somewhere down in our heart we are denying it, screaming 'NO I'M UGLY. NO MY PARENTS WON'T BUY ME THIS.' and so, when i left that road house, i felt awful, but then i remembered that those people might've been happy, because they had each other. because out of everything, how things were tough for them [they were in the middle of no where] they were alright, and going fine.
so i'm promising to myself that i'll think i am lucky, i'll think i'm gorgeous.
because, we are lucky.
