I am having what we call a writer’s block. The condition of being unable to think of what to write or how to proceed with writing. But I am back, baby! I researched a bit about what I want to write so while browsing topics to write and asking my friends, I came across a blog on writing prompts. So I really loved one of the prompts which was - Write about what you’d do if money suddenly wasn't a problem.
So here I am pondering on what all I could do if money wasn't a problem anymore. Money is a thing which weighs your worth on earth.
I have always seen those rich acquaintances, friends or whatever you wanna call it. I wonder if they have to think this much as i have to. I recently had a conversation with my friend. We have to always think thrice before enrolling in a course or any further studies. But these rich lads are just partying, going to expensive restaurant and enjoying international vacations. All of this at the cost of their parents. Call me envious or jealous but it is something to think about. There is a line between them and me which can be easily felt.
While I am struggling to make a decision about what to do and being so confused about spending every penny my mum gives me. It really frustrates me sometimes while I am looking from outside. Well the grass is always greener on the other side. I don't know what the other side is but the greener side looks better, maybe even feels better.
I spent a good amount on food. But other pleasures I think a lot. If I use the money to buy something which turned out to be crap my whole day is ruined. I would need weeks, maybe months to buy something again. I will need constant reassurance that what I want to buy is worth it or not. Because of all this overthinking I usually end up not buying it.
Now coming to what would happen if money wasn't a problem anymore- I would go on vacations and staycations all around the world. Go for wine tasting in Sula vineyards and Napa valley. Buy all the electronic gadgets and use them wisely. Buy expensive and better quality of makeup products. Buy trendy and fashionable clothes with the help of an image consultant. They will help me pick up outfits which suit me and at the same time be comfortable for me to wear. I will have my own private transport with a 24/7 driver to take me anywhere I want to at any time. Go to amazing cafes and restaurants.
As I have pondered about what all I would do if I had money, mostly we all think about ourselves. We forget the most important thing that might bridge the gap between me and those who spend money recklessly. I can use it to help others. Use the money to build a house so I can always have a home to go back to. Do silent charity i.e. anonymous donations.
So I guess we all need to ponder over what we would do if we had all the money in the world. Well we are living in a money minded and materialistic world. It will take a lot of changes within ourselves one human at a time to make changes around us.
