Once in a while, I try to figure how people earn much more or lesser than anyone. Yesterday, today and tomorrow we are all busy, going to work before 8:00 am or the other shift in a way. You are employed or not each of us are busy finding ways to sustain this life, just like how busy those ants below us trying to save foods for living. Even more business men do such thing for themselves and for their families. In this part people are all in fairness but in some other part we are all in different. "If there is no struggle, there is no progress" by Frederick Douglas.
Having a pleasant and abundant life gives us lots to enjoy in life. More money seems more happiness to other people, mostly money make everything do well. But we don't know what struggles they take as they go through it.
I have a short story about above thought, There was a couple who have more or less 20 years gap, the woman was older than the man. They live happily about 2 years.They already have farms, livestock and some other sideline to earn and to live. A time came, the woman went back to be an OFW somewhere in Singapore. Distances separates them. She work hard to have a bounty & more comfortable life, while His Husband too is working in the farm as what they have started. In a long run,.. the Husband feel so empty and felt that there is no such happiness he feels when his wife was not with him. He tried as much as he can to be happy. but the woman didn't notice how his man felt.Until the woman cant anymore join the adventures & trips of his man for she is now unable.
Sadly, this story i have is more on deciding how far & how long would you allow your self to be a shepherd to others just to get that luxury while you forgot that life & happiness you set aside and living late with the one you love when i fact you can live a simple as it was because happiness is all for free.
Lesson to be share to you is enjoy what you already have and improved. Its not how much we have but is more on what you have in this journey of life,. we cannot buy those things that makes this life worthwhile.
