..and the word “need” right there is marked in a monstrous bold font.
We look around today and almost everything is on sale. People and businesses want you to buy. They show you that something is available for half the price, tell you that you can buy something in installments, on *easy* EMIs. They want to buy things that you probably do not need.
It’s easy to get swayed into the craziness.
I’m only human. I too have my needs and wants. I look at such things and ask myself, “Do I want it or Do I need it?”. Only when the answer comes out as “I need it!”, do I ever think of buying that *thing*, whatever it may be. It’s a nice perspective to have.
I take my *wants* as luxuries. I sure can afford some luxuries, but I need to look way ahead into the future and make sure that the decisions that I make today do not, in any way, harm my tomorrow.
However, every once in a while you need to satisfy at least one “want” that keeps your morale high and gets you through this unfair life, and hope and pray that it gets better one day at a time.
