$$$$$$$$$$$


 If happiness were sold for a price of your entire life savings would you buy it? Today’s society tells you anything from; “Money is everything” to “money ruins people”, can we find a happy medium? Does tangible money make us happy? Or is the desire of making bank what strive for? Can money control the mind?  What can money make somebody do? Or is happiness the positive cash flow of our lives?
       Why doesn’t society have a set price on how much it would cost to be happy?  The answer is because the desire for money is what gives us the drive to get through the day. The actual money can provide you with a comfort of a more relaxed living, but it cannot provide a goal and motive to get you somewhere new in life. The fact is that if you have no goal set to achieve with your money, then your money just lost half of its value. 
Being rich can be a wonderful thing, but striving to be richer is by far better. Money is a tool for happiness but in itself is not the happiness. Although probably more humble, the poor cannot provide jobs for other people. Whether or not rich  are more selfish people, unintentionally they are providing for others. So what I’m trying to say is that it’s not necessarily the rich gain happiness through their wealth, but they provide chances for others to strive for wealth and gain that happiness.
So let me ask you this; if happiness were sold for your entire life savings, would you make the purchase?  Can happiness be bought?  Does money ruin people? I say the three most precious things in our lives are Love, time, and money. Money is never the most important thing on earth, actually I believe love is, but it just so happens that I love money… J  

I'm thinking about you

I'm thinking about you then and now
here and there.
I'm thinking about you
like a ball thinks about the hoop
cleats the field
and bat the ball.
I think about you like
the day thinks about the week
the week the month
and the month the year.
I'm thinking about you
like a test thinks about the answers
school the grade
and students think about graduating
I'm thinking about you like
jam thinks about jelly
like macaroni thinks about cheese
like cake thinks about frosting
I'm thinking about you like
a shoe thinks about belonging to a foot
a glove thinks about joining a hand
like a hat wants to belong to a head
I'm always thinking about you.

CHANGE

Do we want change?  
No, not Obama change, real change. Why does everyone feel like we need to change or progress? Because we can't evolve as a person if we don't right? Well what if we don't want to? What if we are perfectly happy as we are. Why would we change that? I think we all have a deep desire to change as a person but many people don't is this why? Because they think they're happy? Bull crap. You don't know if your happy if your not willing to change. This is to all the people who think they're "content" with who they are. #Change

What is Love?



Love is a word we use to describe something we can't. In my opinion there is no such thing as love. We just use the word because we hear it everyday and don't have anything else to describe it. Where is the love? Why do we love? Why do we hear so many damn questions about love? I'll tell you why, because its not real. It's not a specific enough adjective/verb/whatever to be used like we use it. We need to just get specific instead of trying to find answers to this imaginary goal of a word. #Love
