Money Money Money Money…

Daily writing prompt
List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter.

I’m gonna be incredibly real here, folks! Money makes the world go round, so as far as listing jobs to I’d do for free…. there ain’t one!

Now, don’t get me wrong… pretty much every single thing I do each day is done for free and with no monetary compensation.

Seriously, dishes laundry cooking cleaning writing exercising, etc. In my younger years, I birthed, raised, and educated three children… without being paid one red penny!

When I divorced my first husband, I went to work. I paid child support for three children, was disowned my family, kicked out of my church, and ostracized by every friend I had, save one!

My ex-husband got the cars, the house, the kids, and all the sympathy and money gifts everyone could offer the poor sod… so sad for him… waaahhhh!

So, you’ll have to forgive my caustic answer to what job I would do if money didn’t matter. If we’re being fully honest… no one does anything for free anymore, not if you look closely…

Just sayin…

Here’s a cookie to help you swallow my truths…

    1. Nothing to be sorry for, love. It’s just easier to use myself as an example, in order to make a point. That way, I’m the only one expected to give me flack… hehe… hugs

    1. Money just is what it is… so there’s no point in trying to dream up a life without money in it. I shall always have a love/hate relationship with money, as most will. Always needing and never enough… nope! I like to watch how God provides things in my life in so many differing ways… often without actual dollars… hehe

      1. I feel you Sis. Trusting and Worrying about people that never take the time to worry about you has led me to so many struggles in life, so I get exactly where you’re coming from. It’s a lonely world with just me, my wife and our boys, but at least we have each other. I got to the point as well where I’m done trying to please everyone around me and trying to get them to love me and appreciate me. It’s just taking every bit of joy, peace and happiness I have left.

  1. Sorry that you went through all this my Dear Friend., Thank you for sharing such a real and heartfelt perspective. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot, and I admire your resilience. The work you’ve done, especially raising your kids and managing everything else, is incredibly valuable, even if it’s often overlooked. I completely get where you’re coming from—money can feel like the driving force behind so much of our lives. I appreciate your honesty and your sense of humor in the midst of it all.

    God Bless You today and always.

    1. I’ve sort of decided that if I’m gonna feed people cookies, then I get to call it as I see it… not that it is always correct, but this is the real me. If you keep being my friend through it all, then I’m so much the better for it. I don’t have the time to worry what people think anymore… only God! After that… sharing love with others is where I like to exist… hugs, my friend.

  2. Everything is possible with God. Money is not the problem, the love of money is. You know it is okay to asked God to bless you. Not just with finances, but with whatever he wants to bless you with. Asked and it shall be given, knock and the door will be open, seek and you shall find. I might be mis quoting scripture here. I hope it is okay. Don’t lose hope, just asked and believe. 🙏💕
