Tuesday, February 28, 2006times when money does make my world goes round...it aren't funny when i have to check my bank account before deciding whether to buy a pair of shoes. geesh, does that make me poor? *gasp* i've always lived it good. not particularly rich. i know the pains of money but i'm in no lack of it. until i started working. what an irony. stepping out to work. isn't that the milestone to becoming financially independent woman? when i spend my own money, when my parents are not given the right to nag. when i can finally afford to buy the things i want. clearly not in my case. the world out there is nothing like the world that i construe. my ideals are way off mark. i thought... that i'll be happy as long as i can find a job that i am passionate about. doing what i like and do best. simple. money? nah it doesn't matter. what kind of life is that to work your ass off to earn that kind of money? the money you get from doing something u don't enjoy is akin to ill-earned money. my view then. but... i realised that i will be happier if i earn more from than enjoy more of my job. having more clothes is better than getting more praise. yes i can enjoy my work tremedously but the high doesn't quite last when you realise that food can only comes from non-conditioned place or at places where you bring your food to your own table. not that i'm arguing for the lasting effects of retail therapy, it's more than that. it's about living a life at your level of comfort. it could mean going on a short trip to unwind instead of trying to image i'm somewhere. it could mean buying books that i will want to keep instead of trying to etch the quotables into my memory. and of course, if a car comes along, i'll be working my ass off too. money. it used to be a dirty word in my dictionary. but now, i've come to accept it among the ranks of love, passion and freedom. yes, money doesn't rule my world. but it changes my world. amaranthine froze in time on 11:03 AM |
it does not take much effort to see past the mundane and notice the little details in life
