A man came to the USA from other country. After settle down at an island, he went into a cafeteria to get something eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order, but nobody did. Final, a woman with a tray full of food sat down opposite him and informed him what the cafeteria worked.

“Start out at that end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”

“I soon learn how everything worked in the USA,” the man told his friend. “Life’s a cafeteria there. You can get anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price. You can even get success, and you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it you .”

You can’t change the inevitable. The only thing you can do are to control your attitude. Once you reach that point in life, happiness and satisfy can’t be too far away.
