Cold.
It is very cold downstairs and I want a cup of cocoa from Starbucks.
And so I think to myself, "Is it worth satisfying myself a cup of cocoa for almost $4?"
I am really starting to think about how I spend my money. I am really bad at saving, in fact I don't make much of an effort to save, I just put money into my savings if I get a bigger check than usual and then I try not to spend my money from my savings. What does God want me to do with my money? does He want me to save? Because in a sense I feel like it is a waste of time when I may die tomorrow or I could spend it today, as long as I have some left for those catigories like "tithes" "emergencies" "college money" and "gas and other dumb expenses". So, is it okay for me to buy coffee every week? sometimes even go out to eat and buy coffee almost 4 times a week? Maybe I just need to cut back...but I feel like if I do I will miss out on life and just be stuck thinking "im poor, i need to save" instead of "who cares, spend it and enjoy life while you have it" ..i just don't know how to find a happy medium

compare it with time. Every moment we have is a gift from God. We spend time for our own needs and wants...
i don't know what is right though.
i think it not a terrible thing to eat with friends every once and a while (C'n'C for instance), although, it does add up considerably. Realistically, my $7.11 at Applebees every week will be ~$330 a year. Considering the annual costs of frivolous spending helps put things into perspective.
i think that the value of money fades around true friends. x hours of work is y dollars, but when considering those monotoneous times to receive wage y, a few minutes with a dear friend for a hours wage is worth that and so much more.
