Shake your money maker

I don't like transitions, I wish I could fast forward this part. I need a change of pace. Being caught up in the same routine is not good.

How finite that our world revolves around money. Stinky darn green piece of paper. The truth is wealth is power...isn't it? Some people are just plain bloody rich. Were they blessed? Maybe so... Was it hard work? Born into it? Inherited? Lottery? (My best chance)

I thought about this a while ago, but it seems relevant to bring up. I thought about how there are some industries in our world that are booming, but really it's a complete waste. Think about the fashion industry. They're freakin' clothes people! Sometimes people are ants. They are ants when you're in the Sears Tower looking down at the people on the sidewalks. I have this image that we're so small really.. compared to the world and I imagine someone from another planet looking at Earth and saying "how dumb are these people to spend so much money on a piece of cloth?" Why is the fashion industry such a proliferating one? Makeup...in the current age...complete waste. There's no depth to it. At least back when eyebrows were drawn with charcoal, there was an aesthetic value to it. There's so much money spent on enhancing our appearance. Who freaking spends $75 on a Dior concealer?! (disgusting) The entertainment industry to an extent is a complete waste, nowadays. Why are songs like "In da Club" part of a platinum album?! Why is there still a SAW IX? What's up with the name brands?! Marketplace water is just as good as tap water! Gucci and Coach are overpriced. Hummers and beamers.. what's the difference they end up in the junk yard anyway. Really you just need something to take you from point A to point B right? Why have we fixed our eyes towards this? Why do these things have so much power?

What does living with minimum really look like?

There's always an enough. Spend wisely, and have a balance.

Let's reevaluate what's important...really. Take a reality check and see where you are. Do you really need another pair of black heels? Will falsies really open up your eyes? Challenge yourself to live minimally.

Note: I'm not excusing myself from being a victim of this.

I wish I had a money maker that I could shake
