homeless – In my world

Blogaunuary: If you had a billion US dollars, how would you spend it?

In my case, it’s in Euros. But money doesn’t make you happy. Having money is good, but having a billion would be a nightmare. Many problems exist worldwide, so I wonder if a billion is enough. It’s hard to imagine what to do with all of that money. Many homeless people would have homes, that’s for sure. The way people treat poor people is appalling. Greed is a terrible thing. Many problems would be solved if people with lots of money would give something back to society. Now they only use the money for their own amusement. Certain people shouldn’t have all that money.

If I had a billion, I would try to get rid of it as soon as possible. I would keep enough so I wouldn’t need to find work and have no money issues. The rest I would give to different charity organisations. One of them would be for cancer and other deadly disease research. The other would be for saving the whales and other sea creatures. There are so many ways to get rid of that billion. But there is no money, so there is no help. It’s all a billion dream, after all.

Answering the phone is the most terrible thing I know. If it’s someone I know, it’s different. I don’t answer unknown numbers because who would call anyway. Only frauds and telemarketing people. But this time I should have. Someone from work tried to get in touch about when work would continue. So I didn’t know it would start this Monday. So whoops. I went on Tuesday. All that matters is that I did go and now I’m back at work. Tomorrow it’s Friday so the week has gone fast. I’m soon getting hang of work again. It’s also nice to see my colleagues again. Without them, work wouldn’t be fun. It’s not something I want to continue with but it’s nice to say, I’m going to work. At least I have a job so I don’t need to be afraid about becoming homeless.

In Finland, you don’t get homeless unless you have some mental issues or an addiction. Or something worse. In a way, I’ve been lucky to have a home and I can afford to buy food. My parents have also been there to help when I needed it. Not everyone has that. But I can’t carry other people’s problems on my shoulders. I have an umbrella to cover myself from things I can’t do anything about but I can sympathise. It really is a shame some have to suffer no matter how they try to change things. Sometimes you just feel helpless because you can’t help other people all by yourself. If people would be less greedy, then things could be better. People with more money than you do should make more effort but politics complicates things which is the reason why I hate it.

So it was back to work and holiday over. There is no time to keep up at night because I have to wake up early in the morning. The weekend doesn’t come soon enough. It’s easy to get lazy when you don’t have a job to go to. When you do naps after work is boss. On Saturday I’m gonna sleep until the afternoon so I have the strength to go back after the weekend.
