Thinking You Have It All

My friend always tells me I have everything in life. She always tells me I have the money to buy what food I want to eat. I have the money what she can’t seem to buy for herself because she lives in a tight budget.

My friend always compares me to her lifestyle.

All my life I have always been compared from my childhood friends. They always say, I have more than what they wish they can have, but do they know all those stuff didn’t come from me. It came from my parents who have given me what they thought I needed.

Yes, I may have greater things when I was young, but I was not handed through a silver spoon whom I have met from my parent’s friends who had kids my age.

I also had to earn to gain what I wanted. I wasn’t happy what people said, to me. We all have family problems and that is a part of growing up. We learn from our mistakes and learn to not do it continuously as we get older.

I don’t like it when my friends feel they have to compare me what they don’t or they don’t have. Friendship should not come from the difference of how much we earn. 

How we live and so on.

Just like any status in life we may have the same problems, but in a different situation. It all comes to one point in our life.

We all become equal and we work hard for what we want. We save money on items we want to buy.

I see everything equal there may be some people who may work harder to achieve the goal they want. But, we don’t get these things by doing nothing. It doesn’t come to us free we work for it in a different way.

For example I take care of my mom because she has no husband and no boyfriend. In my benefit when I take care of my mom my treasure I get to travel with her.

I may not be earning an income from it, but the fact I am taking care of her it is also called, work.

Everyone earns some thing greater to someone else.

I know I have friends surrounded by me and say, I am lucky I can travel to places they wish they could. Or they wish they could of travel with their parents if they had the chance.

I have heard these comments so many times.

There may be people who envy you or get jealous from you, but I don’t think I am doing anything wrong. 

I hate to hear from someone else someone is getting jealous that I get to spend and travel with my mom. 

If, that other person was living in the same place with their mother I can understand, but when they live a long distance relationship and they are not around for their mother that is a different story.

I’ve always grew up from someone who envy or got jealous of me. I never knew why it has affected them so much.

I am thankful I have a mom who I can travel. I am also thankful I have a family who is very supportive in other ways not related to money.

Sometimes we don’t have time to express what we feel to our family to let them know we appreciate the things the stuff they do to us even if we are distance apart.

Sometimes even we don’t communicate with them that often don’t mean they mean less on what we feel toward them.

Whoever you are I hope you stop feeling less of yourself there is someone who loves you like anyone else in this world.
