You received an education. You have a job and earn at least a decent amount. You drive a car. You live in an apartment or home. You have food to eat. You have clothes to wear. You have people who love you. You have time to enjoy many pleasures in life from watching television to going on vacation. Yet you often want more or compare yourself to others and complain you don’t have enough.
The truth is though, you have more than enough. How often do you remind yourself that you are much better off than many people in this world? Everything stated above, those are all wonderful blessings that need not be taken for granted, and must not be forgotten.
If you find yourself in jail, much of that will vanish quickly. Your arrest can overshadow your education and affect your career. You might have to sell your car or house to afford bail. Your food will not be as tasty in jail as a home-cooked meal. Your wardrobe will become one or two sets of clothes exactly like your prison-mates. You won’t see or speak to your loved ones nearly as often.
None of that sounds appealing, so why even risk your happiness and comfort? Committing an illegal act like shoplifting or theft can drastically and negatively change your once desirable lifestyle. Don’t let your loved ones down by spiraling down a bad path – they worked hard so you can live comfortably. Now you must work hard to continue to do so, because you have this opportunity to. Remember that not everyone can – if you can, you should! Do you realize you have a great life?
Don’t jeopardize it by getting in trouble!
