Last post, I talked about consuming watches. Thought I would do another one while preparing for my writing time tonight. What are YOU about?
A person can have many interests but normally everyone has a core competency and a hobby or two. For example, I found out by and by that I needed a good decent size yet portable backpack, and good sandals. I had been stinging / aping others when I really needed to spend thought and money on just these 2 things.

My Caribee pack |
Eventually, after a few misbuys, I blundered into the Caribee Condor 2 pack and Teva Winsted sandals. Both are quality, affordable, and I soon found myself contented and not needing much else.
I also write stories, write music, collect watches, program computers, run, play soccer and cook. But none of those things are as important. Therefore, I have a cheap used laptop, cheap locally-made guitar, cheap watches, cheap sports equipment and angry dinner guests (kidding on that last one).
It took me a lifetime to figure out I’m a wandering teacher, a Ghandi figure, not a piano virtuoso nor a wealthy connoisseur. And I hope you find out your calling as well and avoid wasting / stinging on money.
