Day 25: Discuss something you planned that ended up not being what you expected.
I planned on retiring. After leaving my last well-paid, full-time job back in 2007, I realized that I wasn’t happy at home either. All I did the whole day was collect unemployment insurance and blog online. There was no motivation in life because I had everything — food, clothing, shelther, car, and a loving family, including my beloved parakeets to keep me sane.
I didn’t have any responsibility, except pay my bills — landline, cellphone and car insurance. Then I met people online and saw how they too struggled to “stay afloat” due to economic and financial hardships. I took it upon myself to oblige on their behalf. Foolishly, I didn’t have enough savings to get me through the three years that Obama screwed up as a nation.
But thankfully, the “fellow brothers” worked their magic and were able to stablize my anger and frustrations as well as others, who suck up the resources of other hard-working, tax-paying American citizens.
The way I see it, there are certain groups whose culture refuses to work hard because they believe in pay back (or reparation) and other forms of social benefits. I don’t have to mention which groups specifically but they have too many children on welfare and lots of abortions.
They don’t believe in education as a stepping stone to success and are simply are too damn lazy to at least try or try harder than the rest. They basically blame others for their misery and unfortunate circumstances — NWO, Illuminati, Freemasonry, God, aliens, extremists, etc.
Although I really hate to work with a bunch of morons and wanted to take the easy lifestyle of doing practically nothing and to learn how to shop for myself and really enjoy going out for once, I don’t want to pollute the environment with my misery of tissue papers from crying out my eyes (after watching sad movie while eating popcorn and drinking soda) and with my idleness of sitting down many hours (without exercises, such as walking outdoors to get some fresh air).
Furthermore, I didn’t want to increase my chances of getting health problems, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerdies, and clog arteries. I didn’t want to become a disabled burden to the medical/health community because I didn’t work full-time to pay for health insurance in the first place!
What I really wanted was a job that meant something to me, that fulfilled my every hopes and dreams, that made me lots of money and brought me happiness, too. I was chasing my “hot air” unfortunately and ended up with this “temp job for hell” temporarily until prosperity, good fortune and good luck gives me “a wind and a nod”.
