I tend to ask myself...

why do I feel poor?

it keeps me depressed when I'm left alone with my thoughts...

sure... you have the obvious reasons...

parents not managing their money properly..

the country being a low-middle income economy..

and the masses placed the wrong person in office..


basically, I feel poor cause I'm a Filipino...

no.. wait.. scratch that...

I feel poor because I'm a victim of crass commercialism... just like every other Filipino.. and every other citizen of a capitalist nation...

I'd like to believe that there is still hope... but no.. the high society got every consumer (read: citizens of the free world) in the ball sack..

because everything has to be about money and not about values anymore...

everything has to be about consumerism and taking advantage of it...

everything has to be about making a buck out of every opportunity...

everything has to be about our worldly possessions and how we cannot live without it...

unlike a everyone else... I don't have people to hug and spend time with... I am a solitary creature working in the darkness of a windowless room..

...trying to find a way to be happy without spending a dime...
