About This Quote

This quote from the American singer-songwriter Bob Marley is about being grateful for what you have. It’s about never taking what you have for granted. It’s getting you to realize that, no matter how much you have, you can always be better off. Or, as the song goes, “I got a lot of lessons to learn, but I’m learning them one by one.”
