We are sometimes so consumed by what we want, we forget about what we really need...
Our human interactions, our human eyes create our wants.... Whether it be something someone else has, or by an emotion we feel the need to have... Let's start with love, some are so consumed with having a relationship and finding that way to marriage that they forget that there are some things that they need like being cherished, treated right, or even losing their own selves for someone else... We look from the outside of every other relationship, friendship, we see which means we are not in the inside to know whether or not it is perfect or something "we want"...
I sometimes call it "the grass is always greener syndrome" (not an actual syndrome remember it is what I call it)... It is when you look around you and you assume that the grasses is always greener then in your own lawn... I joke about you don't actually know how much fertilizer those other people had to go through to get their grass that green... Everyone has had their own struggles their own fertilizer to go through and we must understand that... We may think that God is not giving us what we want, but I am sure he is giving us what we need to maintain our own green lawn...
That is why I make sure I do not overlook the smallest of blessings in my life, because I know that when I look back I will see that it was part of a big one in the making... Some of the things that we don't appreciate day to day, may just be some of the things someone else is praying for today... We must look around and say "thank you"
Being thankful is one of the ways you show GOD honor, so do it everyday...
