A Letter to Myself

Dear Mich,

You are a silly girl, you know that? While everyone is fixated on material wants and scrambling to up their economic status, what is it that you seek? The intangible, the useless, the insignificant - emotions.

Why have you refused to move on and throw yourself into the throngs of hoarding the most for youself? Do you not hanker after a life of luxury and material gains? Do you not envy your peers around you? Why have you stopped in your tracks and refused to bow down to the idolatry of money?

Mich, you are a very silly girl. Naive in your own world, it will do you no good. At the end of the day, you will be one heartbroken person with a pocket that's scarcely filled.
