Well, I guess I can't get fired, because I QUIT! haha.
But I've had a month where I didn't get too much done. Maybe how you might feel if all of a sudden your income was shut off.
Well if you've lowered your expenses then there's not a lot to worry about. And I believe having these big houses, and big new cars, and these rooms full of items that made you feel better at purchase, but now sit around taking up space...are all about attachment.
Last month I bought a truck. It was a truck for which I've been searching quite long. It has everything I wanted, which was very specific and why the search took so long. I was very gratified to let a few thousand dollars out of my grip! haha (if you only knew). But now that I own it, I find that it's not as exciting as the search, and its not really perfect.. and life is not really that much better for owning it.
So luckily, even though I wanted this truck badly.. I still bought it as my personality led me.. which means I drove a hard bargain and I believe I bought the truck at the right price.
Which means, I think the search is back ON, because said truck is for sale, and I expect to make 700-1000 profit because of how I bought it, and how I will market it.
So even though I spent the month "fired"... I have options. I'm not attached to my possessions, and in fact, I rather enjoy the feeling of want, and pursuit.. and so in a way, that pursuit produced an income, and because my expenses are low, probably 2 months of income, doing something I like, for a couple hours (the buying and selling, not the search).
Anyone want a shortbed chevrolet silverado, in the 90's OBS style? V8 automatic. Pretty hard to find, and I'll make you a great deal.. ;)
Seriously!? You're selling the truck!?
ReplyDeleteOh, I might, you know.. can't be attached to 'things', and there is a value and a profit in it. I could sell my other car as well, maybe I'll put both for sale and see who wins the race.. let destiny decide. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't belief in destiny just another form of faith?
ReplyDeleteMumist. The word I had to type to approve my previous comment -- and which I have decided means a person who wears muumuus.
ReplyDeleteWell, I don't know. I would say it depends on context. Surely there's a faith that something is going to happen. When is it faith? When its what you want or accept?
ReplyDeleteI probably should have said I'll leave it to the market and accept the outcome.
