#FirstWorldProblems

#FirstWorldProblems June 16, 2014

Today you’re going to encounter problems. Some will be big, some will be small, some will be mere nuisances. I know it’s a Monday. I know it’s the middle of June. I know you’d rather be at the beach. Going on Facebook will only make your attitude worse, because the four families that are on vacation this week will be posting at least 100 photos each, reminding you that you’re stuck wherever you are while they’re living it up.

You’re going to be tempted to lose perspective and believe that the world is out to get you. Just remember, all the problems you’ll face this week are “first world problems.” Most of them will be great problems to have, problems that the majority of the world would kill to struggle with. A non-profit that brings clean water to some of the neediest areas of the world created a brilliant marketing video that reminds us of just how blessed we really are.

Watch the video below if you need a reminder of just how blessed you are this week:
