Money, Please Stay With Me!

What makes money always break up with us?

Every month on the 1st date, there’s a crowd at my steps. All of them even announce their arrival even before they come, not at my home, but in my mobile as a reminder notification of the bills and EMIs.

They are glued to a person’s money. They don’t even ask for approval; they come, they take, and they go. And we are here watching them helplessly do all this stuff.

Money never stays in one place, and we have all witnessed it with our eyes and pockets.

I am always happy when it is the 1st of the month, and by the time the last date comes, I am most of the time empty. The irony is that most of the people are also going through the same stuff

While bills are for the necessities that we use in our daily life, the loop of EMIs is the most dangerous stunt. A home loan, personal loan, car and bike loan, i-don’t-want-but-i’ll-take loan, credit card loan, and so on. Sometimes the EMIs are more than the actual salary.

And most people are trapped in this loop. And it takes a lot of pressure to come out of it.

The truth is, very honestly, we ourselves have not left a way for the money to stay. Money is like that self-respecting, hardworking employee; you insult him, and he'll leave. You show a door to money, and it will do the same.

It is very hard to make a management plan for spending money wisely, and if someone can do it properly, I believe that if he advises us about it, we should listen. But we have to find that person first.

The relationship with money is very complex, one that needs time, dedication, and attachment, although the love is high, but also one-sided. No matter how much we can love it, it will never love us back. It wants to change partners more quickly than we change clothes.

But with whomever it stays longer, that is definetely a person with a lot of replacement available for this ignorant guy.

I am neither that person nor do I have any replacement for it. And money? well not quite too much, but enough to last the full month.

Please stay with me a bit longer, I’ll give you more love.
