Buying Things


Some days I can think of many things I'd like to have. Some days I do see a strong need for some of the things I would think about having.

Although money is a big matter in the selection and acquisition. Some things I want are not even for me personally. I think of many things I'd like to see my family have. Programs I'd like to create to help people and things I'd like to build as innovative modifications.

I think at this point, I want to have a home sound system which meets the interest to invigorate my home with music. Equally so to make my back yard look like a mini park with some brick work included.

As I get this lackluster energy at times, and I know music has an effect to affect my moods and get the blood flowing.

I am thinking that I need my car completely tuned up, with new shocks and various other things, or get another car. It's such a trip, because cars in my thoughts about the work that goes into making a vehicle, maybe it should not need to be disposable items in my view.

Then there is the Bed- I can't figure out what is the best upgrade? should I look at the Sleep Number, Memory Foam or some other type of mattress.

Just stuff..... seems no matter how it goes, there is always something to that strikes the interest to buy.

I looked at some pictures on the Internet of people in various places of the world, and their living conditions. Then I think in the over-all of conditions, I have everything I basically need and a great many conveniences, many things I have multiples of such. It was interesting because in each of the households I viewed in pictures, some are very challenged as to conveniences, and some have various styles of things.
When I look at very dire poor regions and what people do to make their home environments, some of it is very heart squeezing. I also reminds me when I worked at a different job, we went out to photo various homes which belonged to the organization I worked. It was very disenchanting to see some of the communities and conditions within those communities. It makes me feel blessed with what I have and extremely thankful that I am comfortable with up to date conveniences of many sorts. I have more clothes than I actually wear. Last week I cleaned out the closets of sweaters. I probably took out 30 sweaters and gave them to a woman who likes to distribute them to people who need things.

Its amazing how the acquisition of things result to an accumulation over time of things which remain UN-used.

After the surgery, I started to think that, Wow, I could have not made it, so now I am trying to make use of the things I have and to consider the things I want to purchase, so as to only get things which I will actually use.

the more I go into store, the more I find many of the sales people don't know anything about the products they are selling. Some stores one may even be lucky if they can find a sales person.

Decades ago, people took pride in these jobs, as they could and did rely on them for income to raise their family. Most of these jobs pay is so low, until it is only one among a couple of other jobs people have, and they can't wait to do their shift and go to their other job, all with hopes they may get to finally get home and have 10 minutes of relaxation.

This is what we get for the University Trained Stock Ticker Focused Leadership Running Companies. They could care less about quality and service.

It might be better to look for independent crafts people and buy products they put their heart and they stand behind it with their integrity.

I say, "ALL POWER TO THE RE-EMERGENCE OF THE INDEPENDENT CRAFTS PEOPLE".
