"What is your phone?" Asked by one of Sarah's officemate. Sarah lifted her phone and made the other person see it. "Oh! why is your phone only like that?" Then her officemate looked away and got her attention back to her brand new Samsung phone.. But as far as Sarah's concern " Well, my phone is cheap, yeah antique but it serves me fine."
Sarah does not care. A lot of times she thinks why people need a million things in their lives. Always chasing new and up-to-date gadgets, clothes, new shoes, latest trends of just everything. While these things can make people happy, yes but that happiness is fleeting. Materialistic world always have new and endless things to offer. And because of this, people have been working so hard almost all of their lives just to have them. They forget to appreciate simple little things around them that can be a source of happiness too.
Aha! Sarah caught herself thingking too much again. "Alright. Just think about this. It's not because you can afford something you have to have that thing too. But because you just simply choose not to.

Hi Mayumi,
So many people is inclined to do so. Well, only people who know the essential of having something, not only following new styles, can really appreciate what people choose.
If anyone said the harsh thing to us that we are not up-to-date: well. "so what's your problem...??" :D (I might say so...:D)
Btw, I also have an old phone. It is actually better in saving battery energy. :)
This is a very good blog which has important message. Keep on writing! Thank you for sharing. :)
