I used to have a pretty luxury life almost a decade ago. Buying expensive things didn’t require too much thought and things were easy. Not saying life was perfect, but it had its charm, although I was too young at the time to fully appreciate it. 

A certain change of events completely flipped my financial situation and life isn’t the same as before. I have compromised on a lot of things, live in a lifeless rural area that evokes depression. Have a job that doesn’t pay too well and I’m miserable. I’m just having a hard time adjusting to this lifestyle. 

I know people have told me to always look towards the less fortunate, and yes it gives me contentment for a short span of time until I quickly get back resenting my life again. 

I’m not trying to sound proud but I guess my mind just can’t adopt to a lower quality of life. I can’t wait for things to turn around and have my previous life back, cause I miss it immensely.
