Why is he writing about that you may ask yourself well I'll tell you. Have you ever wondered why your children must have new clothes, bags or shoes in the Winter and in the Summer, I think about it all the time, when I was growing up it was different to today. It's as if last years clothes or shoes aren't good enough because of the mark or because they are out of fashion or the wrong logo, I, perhaps grew up in a different time when my parents couldn't afford new stuff whenever I wanted them and I wore the same things for at least a year or so. In days gone by we were taught that our clothes and shoes are ok until they have holes in them, then we got new ones and shoes, well instead of buying new we took them to the cobblers who would fix them and then they were like new that's why today cobblers and dressmakers are few and far between because everyone instead of using them we buy new. Myself I'm not afraid to admit it that I wear the same stuff until they're worn out and then and only then will I throw them away and buy new, that's the difference between older and younger, they have jobs and therefore can afford new things whenever they want, gone are the days of hand me downs, no more wearing your older brothers or sisters clothes which are still ok but are too small so they have to have new. What difference does it make if a t-shirt, shirt, casual trousers, jeans or trainers have a logo or emblem on them after all they're the same as any other so you are really paying for the mark and supposedly better quality, I for one am still wearing suits and t-shirts that are years old, no mark but are still wearable, maybe not fashionable but who cares, I don't,but as I said if you're children have they're wages then they can spend them on what ever they want after all they worked for their money and it's up to them how they spend it. So I'll keep wearing the clothes and shoes that I have until I have to buy new and they won't have to be a marked brand I'll just go to the cheapest shop and buy them there, my shoes well they're a few year's old but I still wear them until they are no longer wearable and then I will buy new. Well that's all from me for today but think about what I have written and try to remember what it was like when you were growing up and why there aren't as many cobblers or dressmakers around anymore, there's another skill that is dying out along with watch makers and the like all the traditional arts that are a job of the past and only new counts, unfortunately. Well I'll write again tomorrow so until then share or comment if you enjoyed my blog, thank you.
Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...
