On my way to work this morning I started thinking about the past. I remember days when there was almost no food to eat and I had to ration myself just to make sure there was food for the rest of the family. Days when I would be out of the house and I would smell the amazing smells of restaurants and I wished that I had the money to eat there. The thought of being able to order a pizza on a whim was a distant fantasy.
I am extremely grateful that those days are gone but I won't take my newfound financial security for granted. I will keep working harder and working smarter to get further and further ahead, so nobody in my family will have to be that bad off ever again.
