Life's lessons
Ironic how the phrase "money can't buy you happiness" echoes through you mind, yet rarely has an effect until the situation presents itself. Like an annoying squawking parrot repeating the only line it knows, these words of wisdom are treated with a "not for me" type response. How ironic a person who values money so dearly, pinching every penny, thinking happiness is around the corner, learns a lesson, previously and recklessly ignored. Yet ironic is the fact that prior activities were in fact happy ones, swirled with unhappiness of devaluation. Is there a medium for the two? This is the mystery of life.

Good blog Ray. People know that phrase exists, but they take it with a grain salt. It's never for them, how could it ever happen to them? Then reality hits..... there really is no median, gotta take it for what it is,it's either give up or ride it out. Hopefully the latter.
it's funny how we spend our lives making money only to find out that it's only necessary to survive... but real happiness is everything that it can't buy... minus candy and cupcakes
