Well, I guess many people have a misconception of the term "spoilt". It's not about living in a mansion, donning branded goods or driving that expensive car. It's not about living the luxurious life. Well, you can't control how others can afford to live, and being able to live the way others can't doesn't deem one as spoilt.

So then what does?

Being spoilt, basically refers to a character flaw. A character flaw which is caused mainly by over-indulgence. That being said, over-indulgence does not necessarily lead to the character flaw. Well, for example, having a domestic helper in the family which results in the lack of knowledge in household chores is not spoilt. The unwillingness to learn when the situation calls for it, is. The same way, liking to dine in more expensive places isn't spoilt, but unwilling to compromise to dine at cheaper places, is. Hence, it's not about what one has, it is about being able to sacrifice when one has to.

This post is meant to clear misconceptions (: Not really about misconceptions about me, but misconceptions of some people we may know. There are definitely people around us who are way better-off, but rather focus on what they have, it's better to focus on who they are. Most of them, aren't spoilt. They just don't experience what we all experience (:
