Long Not so Lazy Weekend

     Automobiles are an amazing invention to the modern world. They can also be a burden, especially when all of your freeze plugs rust out and have to be replaced. I have been blessed with the wonderful mechanic bill of $300-$500 by the end of the month and a lovely bank account that doesn't want to produce that amount of money to anyone but my landlord and the electric company. When our country was in The Great Depression, I imagine it was much worse than this and there were so many people who had less than I have right now. I also imagine that there are people who are better off than I am as well and I have a little niche in the system to fit into. It's the balance of the world I guess. Money is pretty much the fuel of my fire right now and everything I do is centered around it. Maybe this is my problem and my time shouldn't be focused so much on finances and more on something more important. It is difficult to change directions when you are headed in one so steadily and strong. I want to focus more on reading, meditating, and learning. By doing these things I will subsequently spend less money and budget a little bit better. I also want to focus on being a better person in general with my relationships. I have been extremely self-centered lately and only focusing on myself. It's about time I start thinking about how my actions affect other people.


I hope to update more often to this blog, it helps me think and brings little insight to my life.
