Parenting in Poverties and Living Frugally


Parenting in
Poverties & Living
Frugally


Ah, those who live in poverty, they alone know how their lives traverse with ups and downs. In truth, they get tangled with troubling thoughts when they find themselves deep in difficulties, soaked in sorrows and pauper in provisions. 


Are poor becoming more poor or rich growing more rich? And may be middle class people are dangling in static state. Who knows how people face the high cost of living or get treated by the unwary world?


Perhaps, we can say that the day we get our salaries, we are petty rich, and then, after spending money on housing, food expenses, electricity, children’s education, healthcare and taxes, we feel the hardship of high cost of living. And sooner, we become penniless after all our spending and no savings.


Who truly lives a carefree life? Certainly, people of all ages, nowadays, are engulfed in the worldliness, miseries and worrying cost of living. Forget about poor people and their saddening stories. Bereft of literacy and dreams, their laboring lives oscillate between pains and penury. More miserable are middle class families who harbor little dreams, little aspirations, struggle hard to live stable lives and sacrifice their essential needs to keep their life’s momentum on the move.


More than meaningful living, people, nowadays, think of frugal living. Because their scanty salaries aren’t sufficient to meet their exceeding expenses. Oftentimes, people keep on squeezing spending by embracing alternatives or adjusting to modest means of livelihood.


Parenting in poverties is unbearable. During all the seasons of a year, you have to live in minimalism. Sometimes, being parents, you have to forego what’s most needed, sometimes, for the sake of domestic chores, you have to rebuff your kids’ spirited demands and sometimes you have to forget that there aren’t any dreams and desires in human life.


Agreed that in presence of contentment you’ll find happiness. But, what happens when your life is congested with concerns, confusion and costs? 


May be, with proper calculations, you have to learn ways to live on less money. May be you must be choosy on priorities, brush off non-essential things and be aloof from lavish living.


Ugh, the spiraling costs are so choking that there’re no ways left for little savings. What it means to wail and write your own wretchedness? 


Instead, it’s far better to practice patience and supplicate, in solitude, to the Almighty Lord.


It seems, in the busyness of human survival, everyone has become greedy and aspires to become wealthy. No considerations, no generosity. Simplicities are less seen, but there are too many complexities in this world. Nothing is cheap, but everything has a price tag. 


Who knows, one day, you have to pay taxes for the air you breathe?
