You know what sucks?

Worrying about money.

Honestly, if you're on the lower end of middle class, you have to worry about gas prices and whether or not you'll make it through bill payments.

And you miss out on things you'd really enjoy, just because you can't pay for it.

I might sound selfish right now...

Or ungrateful.

But I'm not.

I'm just sick and tired of feeling concerned about having to scrape by for another month.

Tired of wanting something so badly, having such a passion for it and striving for it...

But being deprived of that one thing while other people are out flushing their money down the toilet on things they don't really need.

That's what sucks.
