Once there lived a girl named Mia, she was not satisfied with whatever she gets always complaint. When her father bought a new dress, she threw that away; when her mother cooked a pancake for her, she didn't even care to look. She always compared her parents with neighbour parents; her parents were upset with her attitude. Once she fought with her parents for a new costly frock, they were not able to afford it. They tried to make her understand the situation.

 Her father said, I will buy you another nice frock which is cheaper than this. Mia shouted; "You both have never bought what I want, always buys what you likes and cheaper

. Finally got out of the shop without buying anything. Mia was only close to her grandmother, who lives in next town. She used to buy her whatever Mia want without hesitating.

One day, her grandmother visited her; house and understood the situation from Mia's parents. Grandma and Mia went for a walk; in between they walked through a slum area, where very poor people lives. Her grandma showed her how these people lives in such place and showed what children in these area eat, drink, and wore. Mia became sad by seeing this.


Her grandmother said; Dear, do you now understand there are people who are not even able to afford one day's food and you here are blaming your parents for not buying a costly dress. Mia's eyes filled with tears. "You see be happy with what you are getting and remember there are many who are not able to afford that", her grandmother said and hugged her. From that day she was only visible with a smile and never complained.
