I am reading a book that has got me thinking. I am always
reading a book or two; in fact, I probably like reading better than writing- it
is certainly less work!

She comes to the conclusion that all of our working for
things just isn’t worth it, and she chooses to stop.
As I float in my backyard pool on a perfect summer
afternoon, I spin around, look at the way too big for two people house that I
live in and wonder about her conclusions.
You see, I can ponder these things perhaps like not many
others can. For I truly know what it is like to have and to have not. Less than
ten years ago, I was forced to sell our modest home and move three adults into
into a one-bedroom rental property that had ceilings that even I, with my 5
foot 2 inch frame, could touch. I remember looking around and crying for my
modest home I had lost. During those times of reinventing myself money was scarce
to say the least. Taking odd painting jobs, cleaning for people, and living off
student loans were the ways to my means.
I don’t remember those times and think of them with
fondness. Call me materialistic, but worrying how you are going to survive
doesn’t make one more pious. You see in the land of fiction you can create an
unlikely world for your characters. The character I’m reading about doesn’t
worry about money. She has plenty of that. She is just choosing not to spend it
to better her living conditions- roughing it, so to speak.
I didn’t look at my time of poverty and need as a voluntary
trip where I just decided to do without. I didn’t choose my time of need, it chose
me, and to be honest I didn’t like it much. Maybe some could have looked at it
differently. Survived it better. Embraced it fully and went with it.
I’m not saying that I couldn’t do it again if necessary. I
survived the first time. But I am saying that if I have to pick, I’d choose to
work to maintain what I have, which to most of the world would be considered
excess. I do know that it is. People live with far less.
It has been said that money can’t buy you happiness, but I
would say it can buy you a little piece of mind. Anyone that has ever wondered
how they are going to pay the light bill will agree that having enough money in
the bank helps you sleep better at night.
I’m glad to read about the character, Rosie’s choices- reading
always helps you think, evaluate, and grow. It is through reading that I can
learn to empathize with another by really seeing what they endured. I will say
that writing about some of my hardest experiences in my memoir was a daunting
task. Sharing things that I don’t admit to most people I know, let alone to
strangers was terrifying at first, but I realized that if I didn’t dare to tell
others the story it would have never been known.
Check out my book
Leave Him? available at Amazon.com. It is currently sale priced at $2.99
for the Kindle version and $12.99 for a print copy. You may read it and not
agree with the character’s (ah, my) choices, but it will help you understand
some things from another point of view, which is always the reason for reading!
