The only thing that gives me pleasure

I am not sure if I have ever told this story but just in case I haven't here it comes.

So, one of those days, I went to visit a friend, and our other mutual friends noticed my face and the atmosphere around me and began to inquiry if I was sick and all of that, but I was fine, truly, I was fine and when they felt I was not being truthful, they decided to ask my best buddy about what was wrong with me because they knew that we both never hide anything from each other as a result, if anyone should know what is wrong with me, it should be him.

So, they drew his attention to me and asked him if he knew I was sick, and when this guy friend of mine turned to me and saw me looking gloomy, he couldn't help but start laughing hard and when he was done laughing, he said something funny that made everyone join in the laughter.

He said, "As far as I know, this baby girl you all are looking at ain't sick, because this ain't her state of sickness and if she was sick, you all would have known because I would have mentioned it to you all or she would have, but there is only one thing that can make her sick or look this way, MONEY, she is currently broke that is why she is looking this way"

Money is her love language, just give her some money and watch her face light up, now I was caught in the act but unaware because how was he able to sum it to that, I jar dropped to the floor with my eyes popping out of its socket, as I watched all my other friend laugh at me because of what my buddy just said.

Well, not like he was lying, but how he said it got many laughing hard and rolling on the floor and I just sat there and I felt like strangling him but I finally attested to his words and got my friends giggling so ever since then when I looking gloomy, they tease me about being broke that is why I am looking that way.

The only thing that makes me happy is being financially stable, that is having a financial problem and being able to solve the problem without worry, seeing something I like and would love to have and being able to purchase it at that moment, seeing the foods I love to eat and being able to order for it and eat it to my satisfaction because already, everyone knows I am a lazy ass when it comes to cooking. Having a plan like I currently do and being able to execute the plan. These and more are the only things that make me happy.

So, being able to meet my daily needs and that of my family is what makes me happy. Anything that has to do with money, I love money, I do not mind doing legal and genuine jobs, no matter how dirty they are as long as they fetch me money, because I love to be financially stable and independent.

I love my space, I feel proud whenever I take myself out for a drink or something, I feel proud whenever I can sort my bills without thinking about how I can sort the next one, I love my independence, grown to love it ever since I lost my father, I feel ecstasy when I spend my money buying all my wants and needs without a worry about how much is leaving my bank account, so I tell anyone who cares to listen, that the only thing that can give me and is allowed to give me a headache, is money.

That puts a lot of smiles on my face, more than you can ever imagine, so, yeah money, being financially capable for myself and those who look up to me, being financially balanced to be able to buy what I want and when I want it, gives me a whole lot of pleasure.
