Thankfulness

Life for me is full of thankfullness.
I used to complain about my life.
But a black guy changed my life attitude.
He is only a waitor.
Everytime I meet him, I said," how are you today?"
He always gives me a big charming smile and replied, "Cann't complain. Cann't complain, my friend"

Attached a few quotes.
