So has it come to this or is this an extreme for a few -- there are only about 200 men and women residing in "tent city". I seems like life is going on and most are making the best of their fate, but are we still not giving up enough? I personally don't have any choice in the things I have had to give up, but I still try to get the things that have been the norm in my mere existence. Should I not?
What to discard?
Our homes - did that by default. Our cars - can't do that because it's paid for and that would mean a car note that I can't afford. Our pedi/mani's - my fingers and toes haven't looked this bad in a long while. Why is it that someone else can do such a perfect job with my finger and toe nails? Our vacations - this may cause a lot of disagreement and probably some fights and estrangements -- but should you discard the time you spend with your family on vacation? I was thinking yes - save - but to the extent where no memories are being made. I then thought - no - sacrifice somewhere else - life's too short and tomorrow may never come My father died this year, not having lived his last year on this earth. So I will be thankful for the census bureau for hiring me and I will save and not discard.
Peace be still.
Ciao Y'all
