money does not = happiness, but money does = freedom.
and for me freedom = happiness.
so in recent one can come to understand why i have not been my happiest lately. i have not been my saddest either. not by a long shot. stressed, absolutely. incredibly actually. not since since college, last semester have i been this stressed. which in time is approximately about the time i started practically pulling out my eye lashes. although, i’ve been doing it ever since soooo…
reason for my stress? money. and in turn freedom. i’m still battling to find myself a good bartending job. and fuck is it a fight. i’ve acquired two, even three kind of. i’ve gone through one already, have been making crap at the other, and am waiting on the third. got screwed out of a fourth, but i’m working there tomorrow not, so whatever. am still under investigation, or “pending review” rather; as the government puts it. blah, blah, blahhh. so money, has been tight. very tight. but, i will get through this. as i always do. 
i’ve got shit in the works! and opportunities in line that will, by the grace of god, pan out, and i can start getting back on my feet again. aka making that cash money money moneyyy.
ah’ the good ol’ days.
til then, i lack freedom. because money = freedom and freedom = happiness.
therefore money does = happiness.
however, i just heard a quote, and astonishingly so… ”relationships are all we have in this world. money! pfff… what’s money? yes, money gives you freedom. but relationships are what make us happy” – jill, real housewives of new york.
yes, that’s right. you heard it here first, or on bravo 2700 god-damn times. ladies and gentleman, never would i have imagined that i would ever quote anyone from that show. nor any other show in it’s name, and like it. but as i sit here writing this, that stupid mumbo-jumbo is playing in the background, catching my ear at all the perfect times. ok, the one perfect time ever but…
and that is why i am not at my saddest. because relationships are all we have left in this world. and luckily for me, i’ve got some of the best relationships with the best people in this world.
