Seriously, I won't mind if you empty your bank account for me. š Personally, I don't want to live a difficult life; I want to be able to buy the things I need when I need them. I deserve some spoiling and pampering too, imagining how I see a lot of people eat and have healthy leftovers meals from their tables that can be useful to even feed two or more persons.
Some are just deliberate about this, and because there is too much money, they place a whole chicken on the kitchen table knowing fully well that all they can eat from it is just a slice. The way they go about wasting food and others important items is so annoying to anyone who doesn't have what to eat.
People have attracted enemies to themselves because of their extravagant lifestyles, and by this I am not talking about those living a fake life. There are people who are genuinely wealthy and spend so much on both relevant and irrelevant things in annoying manner.
They are only living their lives in their minds but we end up insulting them because we are not in their class or category and see the manner in which they spend money or waste food as inappropriate
Till date, I can't remember eating and taking any leftovers to pour out in a dustbin, but visiting one or two homes where I have had the privilege to do dishes, I have silently abused them for wasting so much food after meals that I have to pour them away while doing the dishes.

They live and spend extravagantly, knowing that their source of income will never run dry. Such are the lifestyle of our politicians and top government officials.
They live and spend as if the end of such finances will never come. They not mind if there are hungry people out there or if they have to cheat on millions of other workers to siphon their wages for themselves. As long as they are comfortable, nothing else matters.
The funniest thing is that they bring up their children with such mentality and have them fixed in offices they retire from so that the political powers and reign can be passed down from one generation of the bloodline to another. No body dares to take their position or place in government.
Another crazy set of individuals are we the public, often times we desire to get to a position of power so that we can also have our own share of the national cake The resources of the country are seen as a natural cake, and everyone is working hard, desiring to be in a position where they can loot their own share.
Practically everyone nurtures this idea, except for a godly few.
We don't mind living our best lives at the expense of other people's discomfort.
We are never full and always want more, even if we have what will last us for a lifetime.
Some can even rob a dying person of his last penny, even if they have millions in their name already.
The resources in this life will never be enough for some if they were to give everything.
Maybe greed is just a spirit hunting us for no reason; regardless of how much we have, we still want more.
If you have demanded extra meat or
stolenone from your mummy's pot, sorry sir, you were only greedy for one more. š
The conclusion of the matter is this: be that as it may, if we can be less greedy and learn to be a bit content, we have more than enough resources in the world to feed everybody.
I have wanted to talk about love, but love is not hard to find.
We love ourselves, our families, and friends in unique ways. We hear stories of love expressions and the sacrifices we make for love every day, but greed is eating deep into the systems of the world.
While some are full and overflowing others are empty and hungry. If only we can be a bit selfless, content, and charitable to share the earth's riches, everyone will live a comfortable life.
Thank you.
