Here in Britain we try to live our lives to the fullest. We are taught from a very early age to have ambitions, work hard at school and at our careers, achieve our dreams and desires, to keep strong relationships, to love and be loved, to lookout for one another, to lend a helping hand, to be confident, respectful, loyal, honest, to share, to be open minded, to be healthy, to be positive and, to smile. .
When put down in words those guidelines really don't seem that difficult to follow, if only that was the truth. You and I know life is full of complications. Our careers and relationships alone can cause large amounts of stress, depression and anxiety. Losing loved ones can be very traumatic. There's always the possibility of having a serious accident, which could be physically and emotionally life altering. We have to make sure we have enough money to keep a roof over our heads. People sometimes ostracise others because they have a disability, or simply look different. Despite most of us believing the ideology that we are supreme beings, many of us are at risk of developing a serious illness. We live in a world where liars, cheaters, thieves, con-artists, paedophiles, terrorists and murderers are at work, and sadly because of this we have to be weary of strangers and even worse, people we know and love can sometimes fall into these categories. We have to overcome some painfully challenging obstacles in life. Whilst all these negatives are happening around us, we are still supposed to thrive and be successful.
Thankfully though, we are a MEDC (More Economically Developed Country.) Indisputably, we take this for granted. We have all the latest gadgets at our fingertips, the best materials, the high quality methods and yet, we are still not satisfied. This approach echoes through out the MEDC collective, such as the USA, Japan and most of Europe, all are constantly trying to improve and be at the front line of technology.
