I have lately heard how a lot of British people have been complaining about their country and government. Well, I have never ever been to UK ( prankly, I haven't been anywhere outside my country except for Lithuania ), but I just can't help myself but to laugh at these people for now.
They all say how they don't want the new government and how everything stinks and how they don't want to live there under this Prime Minister ( btw, I don't care much about politics, so have no idea how his name is :P ) and in that economics and blah blah blah blah blah.
Then, I have a suggestion for them. They should come and live in Latvia for three months. Not like tourists who have fun here peeing on our Monument of Freedom or walking around with their a** naked in public, but like normal people here live: with their families, 200-300 Ls salary a month, only one person in the family working, in an apartment they have to pay rent for at the end of each month etc. - well, just like people here live. And they have to adjust to all the things that go on here in politics and economics, like the reducing of pensions and cutting of all kinds of allowances.
And after these three months, their own ye olde UK will look like a paradise to them.
The point of this entry? The fact that before you talk bad about your country, consider that there might be countries where life is even worse, so you have to be grateful for what you have.
