re: I can’t sleep for shite, at what point do you just say “frick it” and stay awake?

Money, possessions, even relationships, are all transient.

This much is true. All we have and hold can be gone in an instant. It’s choosing what to cherish that can help us gain perspective. We can lose almost all the worldly things we have, and some we can’t get back. But in those moments when we can hold the things that matter we realize that perhaps we clung to fool’s gold.

Doesn’t make it hurt less though. Frugality is a virtue. But losing what you strove to achieve and gather takes its toll.

Often a man wonders whether what he has is worth holding on to or if he’s merely clinging to flotsam in an attempt to stop from drowning.
