MONEY

The world now a day is pretty crazy. It forces us to do things that we don’t want to do and makes us believe things that may not be true. Our world is run by money, and if you don’t have it, well you are pretty much screwed. The phrase “money can’t buy you happiness” sadly is false, and I strongly believe that.

I have been living my whole life worrying about not having enough money. My family has never had it. The end of every month is the most stressful time ever. The time when rent comes around. My mom can’t keep a job anywhere around here. No schools take special education teachers anymore. They are on the top of the layoff list so when the bills come, we all have to pitch in what we have. Sometimes we don’t have enough and we get threatened to be kicked out if we don’t pay. That makes our mom have to go and beg from friends and family which really sucks. If we had money it would make our life so much easier and so much less stressful. Not a lot necessarily, Just enough to make it without worry and fear of losing our house. Most people don’t understand what it’s like to live like that. That’s why everyone says money can’t buy you happiness, but they are wrong. For the millions of poor and needy people in the world, money would be the life changer for them.

What is my message to the world? Well I don’t really have a good one just that to all you rich people out there, learn to share if you don’t already. There are people out there that truthfully really need it more than anything right now. And I promise it will make them happy. And when you see the poor begging on the street it doesn’t mean that they have given up, it may just be that they are trying so hard and they just need a little bit to feed their family for a night. And everyone knows that food makes a person feel good and feel happy. So yeah, money defiantly can buy happiness for a lot of people because so much people need it.
