We don’t live in a self-conscious society. We are all aware of how we are spending our money and have learned to become self-aware. But the reality is, for the majority of us, our money is so much more than just a means of purchasing goods and services. We spend money on things we believe are beneficial for our long-term well-being.
The truth is, the majority of people spend money on things they think are for their own long-term well-being. However, the reality is that the majority of money we spend as a society on things that are not, is not for our long-term well-being.
Money is a good thing. And so is our self-awareness. We don’t have to be self-aware to realize that there are many ways to self-awareness. The biggest way that we can be self-aware is by giving to others what we want. We can be the only ones who can turn our hearts into a will, and if they do so, we can’t let them be the ones who do.
The question is, are you willing to give to your family if it helps you through your life? If you are, then you can give your family whatever they need. If you are not, then you can give it to the people you care about.
The most important thing to remember here is that you can and should give out of your heart regardless of how well you know you can. It sounds cliche, but it’s a very important truth. And it’s something that all of us need to remember. Whether you’re giving to your child, your spouse, your parents, or your close friends, you need to remember that there is something better to give than money.
If you aren’t giving out of your heart you are giving out of your wallet, and you are giving out of your wallet to people you don’t know. It’s sad but true. If you don’t have money to give, then you should give it to people you do know. A great way to accomplish this is to pay for your groceries with your credit card. A couple of us on this blog had to do that several times over the last few months. And it paid off.
So when I saw you had bought a bottle of wine from the store, I said “you know your spending 40 US dollars on wine while you dont know the guy who just paid the bill”, well I got it out of you. But then I had to go on my blog and say “you are spending 40 US dollars on wine while you dont know the guy who just paid the bill”. It was funny.
Here in Canada, everyone is pretty generous when it comes to paying for groceries. But it’s always a good rule of thumb to remember that the money you save on gas by buying wine can be spent on something else.
That’s the beauty of the US dollar. It’s easy to spend when you have the money. (And you can’t get your hands on it when you live in Canada).
