@GRUMBLE: I Am Tired

It is not my intention to ask you to be independent, is I am truly too tired . . .
Dickson Idlier

I don't want to live like this anymore. I don't think my efforts are worth anything. Don't take my consideration for granted. My indulgence has caused my current situation. My wife has become a dependent person on me. Originally, I just wanted to help her alleviate the burden on her family and make her feel better. But it turned out like this. Maybe I used to manage too much, and she became like my mother-in-law in the bad habit of relying on her mouth to do things. Don't use me as a tool man(Simp) . I am a person with flesh and blood. Sigh...

Once, I noticed that she wasn't satisfied with me as a loafer. Although she did mention that she appreciated me cooking for her, I still think I have some dissatisfaction. She just complained that "she boarded the pirate ship," which was a joke we used to say about our relationship, and she seemed to be serious. This makes me very unhappy, and it seems that what I have done is somewhat inadequate compared to making money. In addition to making money, seated on the sofa watching TV and Shoppee live and only recently during commercial breaks to help me out during cooking after I exercised. I also want my wife to cook for me and take care of me instead of always relying on me to take care of her. Maybe it's my family tradition, but I'm tired now. On March 20th, 2023, I told her that I wanted to be selfish once and didn't want to take care of anything anymore.

Women must be independent. You can't be treated as a princess every time. Only think about your husband when you have something problems, but neglect him when you don't need him. Finding a sense of success from work is fine since in life cannot find it. But don't complain about busy or tired from work. You asked for it. You do everything for your family and only think of me when you have time. If you put your family first, don't regret you're not your husband's first priority.

Is our lives going to be like this?

Help others need to help themselves first. Those who help others must also be happy before they can help others. I am not happy anymore. I'm tired. I don't want to care about anything or do anything. I'm going on a long, long vacation. As a man but I don't want to go on like this. Living like this is too boring, too tiring for me.

I am finally on the path to become a true idler and well deserved break.

BrainTeasers: Joy Of Giving And Sustainable Charity — Filiporean Project

Giving out the stuff to villagers. Image from:   Giving and Taking Free Stuff Facebook Group You don’t have to be rich to donate. All it takes is having a little compassion and willingness to give. —— Dickson Idlier The “Filiporean Project” is started by Freegans In Singapore co-founder, Colin Lau. The project collects small usable items (details in posts from “ Giving and Taking Free Stuff “ Facebook Group) from public donors or dumpster-dived stuff from Freegans In Singapore (FIS) and donates to Filipino maids in Singapore. The main reason is shipping cost is cheapest to the Philippines. This project has caught up in the news and media in Singapore, so more donations have been pouring in so the maids (numbered to 300) are kept very busy.    Colin saw many usable small items when dumpster-diving around his neighborhood but has no use for them. When he found that Filipino maids wanted these items to bless their family, friends, and neighbors back in their village, he...

IdlierStories: Appreciate Everything You Have Got

Positive Brain Facebook Group A man once telephoned Norman Vincent Peale. He was despondent and told the reverend that he had nothing left to live for. Norman Vincent Peale invited the man over to his office. "Everything is gone, hopeless," the man told him. "I'm living in deepest darkness. In fact, I've lost heart for living altogether." Norman Vincent Peale smiled sympathetically. "Let's take a look at your situation," he said calmly. On a sheet of paper he drew a vertical line down the middle. He suggested that they list on the left side the things the man had lost, and on the right, the things he had left. "You won't need that column on the right side," said the man sadly. "I have nothing left, period." Norman Vincent Peale asked, "When did your wife leave you?" "What do you mean? She hasn't left me. My wife loves me!" "That's great!" said Norman Vincent Peale enthusiastically. ...

BrainTeasers: Better To Live Cheap Under Budget, Than Live Luxuriously In Debt

Desire for a better life gets us more entrapped in the web of desires to overspend. Only by cutting away these threads of desires can we free ourselves and live a less stressful and more rewarding life by spending below our means.  ——  Dickson Idlier There are two ways to live life: 1. Live in a way that we spend less than we make. 2. Live in a way that spends more than we make. Spending exactly as you make does not happen as emergencies happen all the time, so is still in the second group. People would rationally choose spending less than we make but most don't.  In our civilized society, we are constantly bombarded with advertisements promising a better life than you have... if and only if, you are willing to spend to get it. This is so ingrained in our subconscious, from the moment we become sensible, we subtly and unintentionally fall into this trap. Increased income doesn't quench our desires. Offers for better life grow with our income... nicer cars, bigger houses, ...
