First World Problems

People spend so fecklessly and claim they're broke or complain about their lack of money yet continue to frivolously waste their earnings away. Let's be real, you're "gloating" of the privilege you have when so many don't even have that luxury. And I'm not punishing anyone (as if I have the right to), it's totally admirable when you earn your keep through hard work and it's certainly reasonable that you deserve an indulgence from time to time. However, when all you do is splurge in excess and boast or fuss over superficial things; you and I both know, it's an inexcusable extravagance. I once used to be that way knowing full well there are far more important things in life. Although, I suppose you cannot wholly appreciate or discern your dispensable and indispensable circumstance until that comfort has been stripped from you and you're struggling to pay your bills. And I realize we're all trying, we're all taking precautions especially in this economy. I just had to remind myself, stop whining over first world problems, be more appreciative and know when to determine what is essential from what is insignificant. Your life is entirely within your discretion, but you don't need me reminding you of that.
