I met up with a friend who I hadn’t seen in a while and we were catching up on each other’s lives. The subject turned to bills. Both of us agreed life is expensive. Trying to save for the future is challenging when the things you need now take up quite a bit of your paycheck. My friend joked and said, “When I win the lottery I won’t worry about money anymore.” I laughed and said, “Yeah when I get a Sugar Daddy.” We soon finished our drinks and said goodnight. On my way home I thought about my Sugar Daddy comment. They say our words have power and what you speak can manifest. I am proud I support myself, pay my own bills, and the things I have are mine because I worked for them. So is the Sugar Daddy comment me telling myself I could never have bigger and better things because I cannot make them happen myself? And do I really want a want a Sugar Daddy? Honestly no. I have worked at salons and spas for the better part of my Massage Therapy career and have encountered numerous Sugar Daddys, Sugar Mommas, and their Babys. There is always a very unusual dynamic between them. One I could not be a part of. But the details on that I am reserving for another day. Going forward there are some things I need to rethink for myself. Every day I wake up is a gift and every tomorrow is the future. I consider myself lucky to be here and thankful for all have. There are things I would like to have and I know if I put forth the effort and plan carefully, they will one day be mine. And I made it happen myself.
