I was havin’ a pretty sappy conversation with a friend today on MapleStory (I’m in the process of liquidating all my imaginary shit and quitting almost-permanently, so naturally I have a tendency to wax poetic), and the conversation switched to how lucky I kinda am.
Basically, I said, I really wish I had more money. I wish our house was warm in the winter. I wish I had two nice cars I could rely on, with fly-ass wireless security systems that’ll start the car remotely so it’ll be warm when I go out in the middle of winter.
I wish I had money for all the games I want, when I want them, a nice TV to play them on, and I wish I had money for a sweet computer every two years.
But for the most part, I’m pretty lucky – because plenty of other people find all these things really easy to come by, and they long for someone to share it with.
