Family is #1
First rule of economics:
We have infinite wants
with finite resources,
whether it's
time
money
youth
whatever you WANT.
Like (almost) everyone, I want alot of things
education, time, sleep, that new video game, another smartphone,
scholarships, a job, a bigger laptop, new shoes,
the list goes on.
I think I'm running out of pens
might as well want more of those.
I don't have
some fancy, special objects that give me hope.
I don't have
a philosophy that I will absolutlely die to protect.
In fact, all I need to live, all I WANT is
my family.
Can I live without them?
No, physically
and no, mentally.
Physically: they gave me life, so without them, I can't exist in the first place.
Mentally: if they were all gone, I'm but an empty shell of a human.
They laugh,
They yell,
They cry,
They tease,
They fight,
either with me or at me.
They mold me to the person I am now.
They scold me to change the person I might become.
They teach me to be me.
And no GPA can get you that
no SAT scores can get you that
no degrees can get you that
no "lucky hat" can get you that.
I love everyone in my family:
mom
dad
little sis
grandma
grandpa
uncle
aunt
cousins.
I love you all;
except for you, sis,
you little shit
always using me as a scapegoat for all of your troubles
mom and dad believe you over me, too.
