I'm back! Had a terrible guilt trip and heart tugging start for Sunday. But things alwats turned out fine. I kept Telling myself 'don't overthink it!' Just to try to let it sink in that sometimes we don't have to struggle and defy the smallest of things, or decisions.
Anyways. Glad that I managed to spend the day w le seal. While we are the rather atas departmental store in pavivi the ugly truth that is reality dawned on me. That it is such a selfish act of greed how lavish spendings are justified on the good things in life while some are just scrapping by, barely with the bare essentials. Branded outfits for kids... seriously?
Not to say I'm exactly guilt free when it comes to shopping but What I mean is really expensive goods... justifiable?
Mummy bunny was just Telling me about this maid from cambodia.. she was Going home soon. And we were giving her a bunch of stuffs that we no longer need or want. She insisted on bringing soaps back even ! Cos she said ppl back there are so poor that they don't even have soap or shampoo!: O they use clothes washing powder...: O shocking!
I was reading the other day and picked this up: that when in adversity only ppl will grow and change for the better. Hardly when in comfort and luxury. True. Esply apt in our lives these days. More than enough food, monstrous tvs as flat as paper and of cos them iphones. Everything is at out fingertips. But r we truly maximising their full potential? And how are we helping others?
That's all. I just felt he need to express that Its sad to know humanity has come to this these days.
