Lovin' what most would fear =)

Separation makes a good blacksmith,

as it forges sturdy relationships.

But the process of doing which,

Does not come with ease,

The tempering,

The smelting,

often hold substantially destructive risks.

But as and when the tempering is done,

such relationships would bow to separation, no more.

The REAL culprit

Having been told that money isn't everything, I underestimated the value of money until the age of 18. It wasnt long before the truth forced my eyes open.

I've been witnessing 'mild-tragedies' which involve money, the result of which enlightened me on how lucky I was, yes, WAS - having money to spend on extravagances like music players, games and anything that could captivate my attention.

The saying goes "Life is not always a bed of roses". Some people could barely understand the meaning of this 'you-have-to-experience-it-to-understand-it' phrase, but the existence of the 'upper class and lower class' aptly explains the my statement.

Experiencing it is one thing ; but understanding makes up another challenge.

Have you ever blamed your family for not being able to afford your wants? Have you ever had financial woes?

I have experienced the okay-life, the mediocre life, and is currently living the "a class-below mediocre" life, you name it.

Though I never blamed my family for upheavals we have gone through, It is indeed AWESOME to go loose on your spendings, spend without a detailed budget, and without having to worry about your family's financial woes. Yea, who doesn't like to spend? It isnt fun to keep money in, the greatest part lies within the spending part, the feeling of triumph to spoil yourself with extravagances, and to satisfy all your wants.

I'm able to see as I've been to college, and I've treaded the inferior-class places (not slums though) as well. I've seen how rich kids spend, and how some people are compelled to put up with hunger, in order to get themselves through the day, not to bring their wants into the picture, not when they already have trouble taking care of their needs. Delving deep into the matter and witnessing it with your own eyes can be jaw dropping.

I never liked the idea of "unfair-ness"(lost for word) but there's nothing I could do.
The urge to help just isnt adequate.

Before you make a demand for gifts, or your wants (not your needs), think! If I were to compare my situation with my (someone), I would be left with nothing to complain - my allowance, budget and my life! He's abroad and almost out of cash. Not wanting to burden his family, he refuses to turn to his parents. The result of which has starved him countless times and has given him worries that most cannot understand. If I had the money, I would have given him all of it! It breaks my heart to learn that he's out of cash, and not guaranteed a meal everyday.

Money is merely "fun?" to some people, but replaces oxygen's role to others.

I would consider myself lucky =)
