You're so lucky to understand the value of hard work and valuing small things in life early on. I had to learn this in the most unpleasant ways.

I learned a lot to value what I have right now and extremely grateful for it. I never knew gratitude until I actually talked to people as I grew up pretty disconnected. Now, I've had some life experiences under my belt and learned to constantly thank God and everyone around me who has helped me this far.
