We're Poor But Happy

Ive never been with a family that struggled so much

but even though we struggle we get though it

Im the only one that doesnt work in the family and I feel extra guilty cause they have to support me 

Im trying to get my work visa so that i can work so that i can contribute to this family and maybe help a little 

its like they get their checks and they are gone like water running through their fingers..i dont know how they do it 

I know how to save money..I hide it from them cause if they found out i have money, they ask 

I saved up like 600 dollars for my husbands Xmas Gift 

jeez its not that hard to save money just put away 

10 dollars each time you get paid and DONT TOUCH IT!

its that simple

ohwell they dont have the same mentality as me

but we've been so poor ive had to eat chocolate chips as a snack and there wasnt many 

we didnt have any food for a while

our fridge was bare, all we open it for was to cool off

And is still pretty bare but at least we're not starving now

It feels like we have gone through a lifetime of struggles and its only been 5 YEARS!!!

WOAH

Im tired

 I love them all 

especially my husband 

Even though we're poor 

I dont care about any of that 

As long as i got a roof over my head and a bed to sleep on 

Im good

We're Happy and Humble
