RE: The More Money, and Things That we Acquire The More we Want.

in #life7 years ago

After reading this blog, I am sure that you have a brilliant mind and don't think like an ordinary person, your disability will never stop you in achieving anything you want.
In my opinion, the definition of poverty varies, in my country, there are millions of people who can't even afford food twice a day and there are people who have billions of rupees, yet the don't spend on the poor.
This is life and we have to accept it. I think a peaceful mind is better than having a lot of money in your pocket, yes money is important to live a good life but again it's not everything.
Keep up the good work!

Oh yes definitely the definition varies. I am reading a book about people living in a slum in India who have shacks made from rubbish. Being as I live in America for me the definition is not having my rent every month, having trouble buying food (my roommate helps with both a lot), and having no access to medical care. (I finally moved to a state where I can get medicaid because of my poverty level.)

I am working my way up though and I do think I am resourceful enough that I will eventually get by. I regular 9-5 was never my style anyhow. :)

Thanks a lot and I agree with everything you have said. You need some to be comfortable but it definitely doesn't trump love and experiences. I long to be back near my friends one day where I can live again in a full way.

You will @lauralemons and I pray you get what you want in your life.
Resteeming thi post as well.
