'twas the best for me

Other families, neighbours always had the better stuffs,
better houses and furniture, better electronics and gadgets while ours, 'antiques'
they even had better cars compared to ours, but ours did get us around.
Other parents had better occupation and could afford the better schools for their kids, buy them better school bags, launch boxes and even better toys.
In our case, we managed what we had.
Hey, I was envious of them, it churned hard in my stomach.
Was it envy or jealousy then, I can't really say because I wanted such luxury.
But now I do realize, the reason I didn't have such and that what I did have was the best for me, so I will be the best of me.

In life, people ain't the same and it's always for a reason that is greater than us all.

As humans, the evil in our desires is not in the fact that we want something but in the fact that we want it too much.

We really ought to know the difference between our WANTS and our NEEDS.
