On my Dime
I just got back from
the grocery store where I was over come with gratitude for the fact that
whenever I go to the store these days I always know I have enough to
purchase what I want and what I need.
When I returned home I was still thinking about this. I realized that
in one month I spend over $100.00 on unnecessary food items. These are
items just to crunch, munch or just because they sound good in the
moment. I then thought of the 10 cents it takes to purchase a salt packet
which will save the life of another human being on our planet. Without
judgment I realize that I spend enough in a month (on things which can
shorten my life) to save the lives of over 1000 children. All I have to
do is forgo my vice for junk food and make a different choice.
I realized if this
is the choice I give myself every time I purchased a candy bar I would
never consider making that purchase. Yet, removed from the situation
and given the choice of where I spend my money I make the choice for junk every day.
So my question is
why do we think it is so easy to make the choice of self indulgence over
concern and care for others when they are removed from our radar?
Interestingly as I
write this I have eaten $4.65 worth of chocolate covered almonds. Would
my money be better spent saving the lives of 46? Can I find a way to
do both?
