I have been away for awhile, doing illegal stuff, and dealing with my percocet addiction (which is actually a suboxone addition now), and feeling sorry for myself. I almost have the "monkey on my back" licked, but I have to really tough it out.
Sometimes, I forget, that writing about how one's life is going, and how one's life has gone, can be therapeutical.
My topic today, is a topic that I would never have thought to include myself in, because I always figured I would never be poor.Even though I am not poor in the sense of not having a car, or not wearing clean clothes, or not feeding myself and others........I really do feel poor.
It could be that since my mother and father were living as middle class, I could never feel like I was missing anything. I believe, that as long as you are clean, and don't have any illness (that money can't cure), and that you can always eat when you are hungry, then, you should never think you are poor. Am I basically correct with that?
Please answer that with a comment, regarding how you feel about that last statement, even if it is controversial.
Yet, as you live in your designated monetary society, and conduct your daily activities based on what your "on hand" income will allow you to do, in that particular class....it is usually that class of people, with whom you will associate. Yet, I can say that I am intelligent enough, and clean enough, and know how to dress for the occasion enough, that I can fool most people with whom I come in contact with, of my "actual" financial status. But , in the long run, it is the poor people of this world with whom I associate.
Would you agree with me that being poor can be, in the majority, linked to the reason of why theft occurs? That is probably a very easy statistic to verify (given today's poll community). But, in a non argumentative way, and without bringing in "greed ", would that be a fair assumption?Before I continue, let me know what your opinion is?
