Today (I wrote this text on the 27th of January, 2024), I will write about money issues.
I will start this text by asking a tricky question: is the point of money issue to have enough money not to be constrained to think about it? I believe it is a key in terms of money issues. The truth is that I wrote many times here, on the www.adammazek.com blog, that I was not born to make money. If other people believe their existence aims to earn money, let them do what they want to do. I am not one of them. I want to earn money and have as much as possible, but I won’t devote my life to earning money.
The truth is that I want to have enough money not to be constrained to overthink it.
Still, I am only a human. I cannot answer, like most other people, what enough money means. I believe most people fall into the trap of constantly increasing wealth. Sometimes, I wonder whether it is a natural behavior. Perhaps it is. Still, I want to free myself from this issue. How? By asking twice, triple, or even more before buying something if I really need it. I have only life and believe I have something profound to do here. My life’s aim is not to be a mindless consumer who lives to work, work to earn, earn to spend, spend to live.
It is not the case I found meaning in life and its sense.
Still, I believe one of the best things I can do for myself, my family, and society is to walk, do street photography, write, and prepare subsequent “Diaries'” editions and sets of pictures like “Negation of the End,” or “Transience.” Speaking briefly, I want to focus on broadly defined creation in my life, not on earning money. That was my text about the money issue.
