Debtor
|
A friend of mine once declared very eloquently: "The money earned is for spending". The saying sounds like a truth. The problem is that he spends faster than the speed of making money. Buying a new phone when the old one is still running well, changing a car when the old car installment is not yet done, traveling mainly for experience, money is secondary. Initially, it was just a few petty installments. Then it was a long Excel board. He still lived very happily, posting check-in photos regularly, captions always showing that he was living to the fullest. The only thing is that behind each photo is a bank notice reminding him of a very punctual payment schedule. His life gradually divided into two parts, making money during the day and thinking about how to pay at night.

My job
|
A sidewalk coffee morning, where world news is updated faster than online newspapers. The left table analyzes celebrity divorces in detail like private lawyers; the right table discusses macroeconomics even though the wallet is "negative macro" from the 20th. And he is struggling with his own deadline. That contrast is ridiculous, when we are often engrossed in being "directors" for other people's lives but leave our own scripts unfinished.

Space of silence

In the morning, he stopped by a familiar shop, ordered a glass of black ice with little sugar. The shop owner looked at him, casually: "You're sitting alone again?". He smiled: "Calm down, my dear".
