Sometimes I just don't understand the whole concept of life. We are put here to carry out a purpose, but what if you get lost in the middle of doing that like a lot of us tend to do. Then what do you do? Right now my life is not in the best of shapes but its decent when life throws you lemons made lemonade right? I just don't know why things can't always stay at that constant you know. Where you have things great where everything is going your way. But then what fun would that be now? We live for the curve balls and the what comes up must come down. Your always told to dig so deep inside when the going gets tough but now a days and the way thing are with the ever rising prices and the falling middle man when is going to be our turn to come up and stay up instead of constantly falling down? Now, I know I am not the only one on here that is to this day working paycheck to paycheck. Many people are still doing so, there is a lady that I work with and she is 72 years still working. In a way it kind of makes you think why would this lady have to work at all? She can't afford now a days to retire, and thats just horrible. I kind of hate the way that a lot more people are not choosing to work till they die but are basically having to. Its kind of hard to have to fathom myself having to do the same thing.
