The other day, a person came to me angry and said, “Can you belive my mom didn't get me the iPhone4 .” I asked don't he already have an iPhone. He looked at me and said“ yea, so....” This had really got me upset, I started to speak. “Some people don't even have a phone, let alone an iPhone”.“ You come to me weeping because you didn't get what you want, come to me when you have a problem that isn't selfish and has a realistic answer”. As you can see this person is: spoiled,ungrateful, and probably doesn't appreaciate anything. Some people don't even have a house,family,friends,food ex. You need to be glad that you wake up the next morning knowing that you have a place to stay, place to learn, place to eat. My dad always says anytime I ask him what do you want for your birthday, he will always reply everyday is my birthday. You know why, he doen't need gifts to make himself happy. Life itself makes him happy. The point is a please or a thank you wont hurt, the next time you receive something. Just remember the littliest things, people would die for so always be thankful. Whether you have it or not, atleast you have something.

Though your blog is nice, so is material possession. How is the point, "please or thank you won't hurt"? I thought the point was "Stop begging for crap if you already have decent crap"
This is so true! I hear of people who have every modern game system imaginable and yet want more while i just have a DS and a DSi. No, i don't feel jealous, i just feel really sorry for them. I'm pretty lucky compared to those across the world and even in the US how don't even have homes or food, much less video games.
I agree with The Ram on this.
Many people must learn that they need to stop whining and realize the good life they have.
I always feel bad when I recive a gift.
This is so true. People at school say things like "I hate my mom cuz she didn't get me an itouch."
I want a phone but i mean i don't haaave to have one.
Exactly! I thank you for writing this Blog! Half the kids who are angry they didn't get their peice of plastic crap probably don't know how much money their parents actually have. Bills, Rent, Taxes...
