My Story 1: Human Suffering as the Art of Men

I have learned that:
If I earn and save money while working, I will spend it while I am not working.
My parents have daily responsibilities and reasons for not spending lavishly during the festive period.

I have always thought that life is very unfair. I was thinking that life is not easy to live in. Life is not easy for the people who don't live in the city like me, I concluded.

For about 11 years, I felt bad about almost everything that was happening around me. Maybe that's how everyone feels. I don't have an answer to that. I don't know about others but myself. I concluded that life was hitting hard on me.

I don't know what to do. I thought my parents were the ones who were treating me badly because they didn't give me everything I asked for, give me food that satisfied my hunger all the time, give me only meat for dinner or leave their work and go with me for a long vacation most of the time.

At a point, when I decided to leave my parents for a while, I went to another town to live with my brother. It was during the holiday. I was still young and I could not get an apartment for myself. The best I could do was to stay with him over there.

There were job opportunities and a way to engage myself in something profitable during the 7-week study break, so I decided to explore, as at the time I was a little bit older than 18. My brother did not stop me from getting something done.

Since I made some money, I decided that I was not going to eat any meal that I didn’t like to eat much food as dinner, so I would eat well in the afternoon from my earnings and give some excuse during dinner. I did that for a while and beforehand, it was time for resumption.

He gave me money for my transport fare, went with me to the bus stop and I left for home. At that time, I started learning about life.

What I learned was that if you work for someone and get paid, you can use the money to feed yourself during the day. I went back to school and there was a little money to spend in the afternoon. I did not save a lot of money; that's not good enough, I guess

I finished high school and went back to his place to work and earn again. This time, I want to save a lot of money for myself so that I can buy a lot of things when I return home, I did worked for a year and I was able to save a lot more than I did the first time, six times the initial saving.

I went back again and spent it all in a period; just six months. I was tired of trying; I could not blame myself for spending the money and I don’t know who to blame. I can’t blame the money; I was the human spending it.

Finally, I discovered something, something very important and a lesson to learn in one’s lifestyle. There is always a reason to spend, there is always a need to attend to financially, Human beings individually have daily needs surfacing and chasing after the money in his or her pockets.

I used to say my dad earns a lot but won’t give me a big amount of money to spend daily, I now understand that money must move and demand does not want money to be an introvert.
