i have faced every struggle a mother and a wife could face. there are so many bills to pay and my husband's income's just right for everything and sometimes we still borrow money from other people. but you know sometimes i am so tempted to enjoy life. maybe a cup of coffee, eat out, take a vacation. what do you think? is it ok for me to enjoy life?

yes, even life is so difficult these days. We have to be content of what we have, live one day at a time and don't forget to smile and count your blessings!

Sometimes and if you don't get into debt just trying to enjoy life. It's always better to live within your budget. You won't enjoy life if you have people running after you.

even if life becomes a strugle, we should enjoy life to the fullness. what i do, i worry about things up to a time through a day, say like 4 pm, can;t really deal with much, and once fri at 4 comes i don't worry until monday.

Yes it is ok to enjoy life and do for yourself every now and then. If you spend all the time worrying about material things then you will not be living life life will be living you. Always take at least one day and not think of the problems in your life just think of right then.

I think that yes you can enjoy life, but that doesn't mean having to spend a lot of money on it. Most of the things that I enjoy most don't cost anything. Also, if you know you haven't spent a lot on something, you can enjoy it without guilt!
