I am perplexed today. When I was younger and I had so many talents but didn't make the time to do them, instead I worked.
Yesterday I had a good day decorating and putting things away. Today I get up and 5 hours later I had to take a nap because I am exhausted. I slept 2.5 hours before I felt rested enough to get up.
It saddens me to think my energy level is so low, I want to work, I need to work, but I cannot work. There is no way a boss will let me take a nap or take the day off because I couldn't sleep because of pain that kept me awake.
Every day I am so thankful for what I do have because it could be a whole lot worst.
There are so many that do not have a clean bed to nap in, good food to eat, or a place to get out of the cold or heat. We are the wealthiest country in the world and we have people working and going without the necessities of sustaining their life.
Not everyone excepting help from the government wants to, they have too. I am fortunate enough that I don't have to, but there are many who do work but just do not get paid enough to sustain their existence.
Let us stop giving huge breaks to corporations and religion groups that abuse the generosity of the taxpayers. Stop blaming the working person for needing help with food, insurance, or daycare so they can work. The real perpetrator is the ones at the top not at the bottom.
Thanks for listening, just my thoughts.
