It's been a rough day. I'm at work right now. I just heard on the news another story about how we should all squirrel away any money we have in case the economy gets worse. Those comments get me so angry. I'm not going to stash money for a rainy day. I'm going on a vacation of a lifetime. In doing so, in a small way I am going to help this strained economy. But far more importantly, I will create memories that will last forever.
A potential guest came to this hotel for a room. I told him our rate. Instead, he decided to save 8 dollars and stay at a motel that is known for drugs and prostitution. This man was over 70 years old and will have a horrible stay at a terrible place because he wants to save 8 bucks.
I found out that a friend I met on youtube is fighting a serious illness. This guy has a better outlook on life than most people I have encountered.
All of these stories have one thing in common; it is vital that while going through our daily grind, we all remember to actually live our lives. I feel pity for the people who haven't figured that out. And for the ones who understand that secret, I feel admiration and respect.
