Thoughts on Being Broke

Published by cgardener at 4:22 pm under General Stuff Edit This

I’m broke…busted…less than $100 cash to my name. I may lose my house and I’m in real danger of having my electric and phone shut off. So I’d better blog fast, before I lose my internet. I created this situation for myself, because of circumstances where I worked that I felt were so detrimental to myself that I could not bear them any longer. I think that sometimes you have to shake your life up, put yourself on the edge, or you get so complacent that you no longer care about anything. I feel like I’ll come out of this a stronger, better person, with a much more streamlined, simple life, and a new focus. I’m looking forward to whatever adventure this situation creates for me. Life isn’t about sitting still, it’s about moving…sometimes forward, sometimes backward, but always moving. At this point in my life, I want to explore new places, meet new people, and learn new things. I cannot do that while I’m bogged down with homeownership and a full time on-site job. So wherever my new life leads me, you’ll read about some of it here, some of it on my other blogs. I can only hope to leave something of value to the world, something that people can learn from. I want only to have someone look back at what I’ve left and say “She was a good, wise, and intelligent person”.

    You are down but not out. You seem positive and open and good things will come your way.

    Thank you Alicia. I wish you would tell my mortgage holder that. It’s hard to write when you’re scared of losing your house.

    It’s cliche, but everything happens for a reason. It all seems to work out in the end.
