Happiness Is A Bliss?

My husband showed me the latest of the house that he is working on together with our son. It is another luxury house, a mansion and the detailed features from the very materials that were put together to finish such wonderful beautiful house is awesome financial capability of the owner developer. How lucky the people who will be able to live there and lucky for them to be able to afford such a classy mansion. You have to be a millionaire to live in such luxurious dwellings.

The other mansion was finished and my husband hasn't given the bill (the receipts) to the owner. I don't know what he is waiting for. Sure we need extra money so that we can also move out from this house we are presently occupying due to the sudden change of mind from its owner to sell it again. It was for sale for more than a year actually, only to have it listed in the rental property management. It was one of our choices, not too many to choose from that time. When we saw it from the local flyer we thought we have to take a look of it inside and out. The outside is disgusting as I remember. It was like an abandon house and lot. The grass on the yard looks like it was unkempt and wth sort of a scenery from a haunted house movie. Creepy! My son said some other houses are worst than this one. Besides, we were in a hurry because our house was sold right away. Imagine being in the market only for one month and a father and son from Calgary bought it. Great deal! Hah! It was such a good deal because the price for that dad's rancher is worth more than the tag price. It should have been sold higher than what it's been advertised. I knew that it will be sold even for the price of $350,000 at least because of its large yard, workshop bigger than the garage. The rancher has   three bedrooms with two bathrooms but the living room is large enough to be convenient for the occupants and the kitchen is bigger than any other kitchen because you can fit in two dining room set. Oh well, life sucks! There are some group of people who are in dire strait and they want to have part of what they can sell.

I have frustrations. I was disappointed. I hate few people because of their greed, arrogance and they should get out from their high horse.

I was ambitious too when I was in College. I was ambitious enough to finish my College degree and get a job right away. I  experienced so many obstacles but that doesn't stop me from achieving what I have to achieve. However, you can be very ambitious but when wages are not enough to sustain a person's needs and wants then what comes to mind is the word "practicality."

Be practical for the sake of knowing what is more important. When you know what could be at stake and what could lead to happiness. Besides not all people who are richer than you are happy and contented. Meaning it's not always the material things that can make a person happy... maybe just superficial or happiness could be a big lie.

So are you a great pretender?
