Needs Vs. Wants

So yesterday I had Thanksgiving on my moms side of the family. We got the chance to go shopping as well after we ate. This year for Christmas on this side of the family we decided to adopt a couple of families for Christmas instead of buying presents for each other. Yesterday is when we went shopping because all of the family would be there so we thought it would be easiest. MY cousin Katie and I got to shop for this 2-3rd grader (i not sure how old she was). We were kinda just ripping through all of the clothes at the store and throwing them in the cart. All this little girl wanted was a new pair of Khaki pants cause her favorite pair ripped. Seeing that just made me stop and think. Everyone in this world is just so needy, and we just never stop and think about the poor people who can't afford everyday things like that. I just made my whole day when I got to go shopping for this little girl. Just thinking of her reactions when she gets to open all of these presents at Christmas time! I think that really changed me on how I think. We don't always need things, mostly just want, and we need to just get over things in life if they don't go our way.
