Money money money...

In the lives of most people, money is usually part of what makes life complex. And being in that stage where parents are no longer a fallback, it can get very stressful. I know that people who don't know me that well or people i am not that close to think that i have everything and that i am all set for life. But i am not. It's frustrating sometimes not having what my sister has. They have it easy. My nephew doesn't even have to work anymore. I know i'm quite lucky because we have a business (though it isn't doing as well as expected) but sometimes i wonder what it would be like to be able to save more than enough (or even consistently save a little). Sometimes i feel as though it really isn't worth it to live here anymore. But who knows? This might be my lucky year!

I remembered this episode from oprah where they were talking about women millionaires. And oprah said "it's not about how much you make but how much you keep". And that stuck with me ever since. I just hope that with hard work and patience i get to where i want to be in life.


*today i am thankful for the happiness despite the pain. And for all the difficult experiences in my life that made me stronger.
