"I would rather have an inferiority complex and be pleasantly surprised, than have a superiority complex and be rudely awakened." - Vanna Bonta
Life is never easy. Some people would think that happiness means getting everything that they want. However, if you think about it, everything loses its meaning, its depth when each and single thing that you ask for is given instantly in a silver platter.
The world does not work that way. Well, at least, for most of us.
Kids who are given everything in life usually tend to be brats who do not understand the words sacrifice, hard work or perseverance.
I grew up in a middle-income household. We had helpers but we were required to wash the dishes, clean up the table and do other house chores. I will forever thank my parents for the discipline, sense of accountability and responsibility, and dedication that they have instilled in us. I would have hated myself a lot if I had entitlement issues, or worse, superiority complex.
I pray for me, and each and every one of us to realize our place in this world and learn not to be arrogant about it no matter what our role is. In the bigger scheme of things, we are no more than a speck of sand.
