If you're having a bad day, consider that 99.99% of your ancestors had:

→ No shelter
→ No clean drinking water
→ No food security
→ No cure for diseases
→ No painkillers
→ No access to education
→ No means of rapid communication

Be grateful for what you have.

You're right, it definitely puts things into perspective. I am grateful for all the privileges and comforts I have in my life, knowing that my ancestors had to endure so much to provide us with the opportunities we have today. Thank you for the reminder to appreciate what we have.
