Yes, I know the chances of me winning are astronomical.
Yes, I know that unearned wealth is awful.
That being said, I had to play last night. $330 million could have done a lot a good for my friends and family.
Think of the life that I could have given TEA, the debts of friends that I could pay off, the promise of stability for my parents, and my brother and sister.
And...
Of course, I didn't win and I am not going to play again, but...I like the dreams of being able to help my friends and family forever...and that makes me happy...
I wish that I could help them now, but...I am just me...and me is okay...
I can tell you from experience that all the ways you do help are amazing, and without them, our lives would be all the worse.
ReplyDeleteSarah, you have never gotten the full dose of my douchitude (TM) and I am sure your feelings will change if you are ever so blessed to have it hit you.
ReplyDeleteI am petty, over sensitive, and naive (all at the same time) so...yeah...not pretty.
