Her Free Stuff is So Expensive

I know of a lady, who is the most generous person I have ever met, she will give you free stuff. Clothes right off her back, shoes right off her feet, her bag right off her arm, she would give them to you all free, but it’s the most expensive free stuff that you will ever get.
She will shower you with complements, help you with resources, give you anything you need even if she remains in want, but its so expensive, taking her free stuff. Her stuff is free but definitely not cheap. It comes with a price tag that most of us cannot afford.


For everything free thing she gives you will have to pay for it. Its do costly.
So how can free stuff be expensive? She will make any demand of you at any time she wants because she gave you free stuff. She will take anything she wants from you coz you have her clothes on your back and her shoes on your feet. She will reserve the right to judge you with harsh words and you wouldn’t be able to say anything because… you got her free stuff. She will call you names and order you around because….
The price of her free stuff is your joy, your happiness you piece of mind and a guilty conscience because you did take her free stuff!
When I was younger, I was rich with innocence, joy and so cheerful, no judgment would put me down. I was so rich I could afford all her free stuff. I would buy her free stuff in the bundles. But over the years, I have had to pay more than one supplier of free expensive stuff and my wealth has depleted and am broke of tough skin, I am broke of joy and innocence and I cant afford free expensive stuff anymore. I wish I could return the free stuff I bought for my joy and piece of mind, I wish I could return the free clothes for my happiness, I wish I could return those free shoes now for less harsh words. But its too late, I already bought the free expensive stuff, and I will probably have to pay for it for the rest of my life.
But there is hope for me yet. I will not buy anymore free stuff, I will stay away from the free expensive clothes and the free expensive jewellery, coz I aint got any more buying in me and I cant afford the free expensive stuff.

I know there is someone reading this who has been buying expensive free stuff. Don’t buy it any more coz it gets more costly by the day. The prices of free stuff is sky rocketing and this kind of inflation is definitely not good for you if you’re broke like me!

Peace at All Costs

Peace is a very important aspect of life. Peace of mind, peace at heart, peace within is what most people look for. Most social relationships can put some one under stress. Family and friends are all there for the greater good but they can be quite a pain most of the time.
Ever find yourself letting a lot of things slide just to maintain peace and harmony. Well its hard to find that happy place where peoples rants and rampages do not get you pulling your hair out of your head.




Most of the time the people you have close in your life feel that they own the mandate to judge you just coz they know you, at times they are right but most of the times whatever they say is a complete exaggeration of the truth leaving you fill misunderstood and at times you might just want to go off.
Family and friends will always take you things, both your physical property and your spiritual stuff. That’s what they do, take, take and take some more, you cant deny them coz you love them but at times you just cant stand it. It can be a very frustrating place to be.
Take for example you have a favourite pair of slippers

, every body in the house know you love your slippers to pieces yet you still see them strutting their corns and calluses in hour precious slippers. You could go off, lose it and pry your slippers off their feet, get into an argument that will completely veer of the topic of slippers. Keep the slippers and loose the piece of mind of a good family relationship or let it slide, get a new pair of sandals and enjoy a loving and healthy relationship with your family… its just a pair of slippers anyway.
Basically what you need to do with family is learn the art of letting it slide. Not every injustice is a war, family will always be family and amid all the craziness, they will still love you in their own wicked twisted way. That’s what its all about….love and peace at all costs. Word!
