Trophy Wife
Maybe I should become a trophy wife... stop laughing...are you done? I'm just saying it's not a bad gig. Although at my age in order to be one I would probably have to marry someone who is well over eighty! But look at it this way, at least I wouldn't have to put up with him for more than twenty years or so. Better yet, I'll find one who's ready to kick the bucket! If you think about all of the horrible jobs out there and the amount of work involved it would be a cake walk. If you could shove aside the whole morality issue, that is. Why is extravagant amounts of money so important to people? It seems to me that it sometimes causes more trouble than anything else. People get a taste of the good life, and they will do anything to keep it. I guess that's why we have morals, otherwise we lose sight of what is important, the goodness and kindness in people. I could care less what someone does for a living. Or what they do in private, for that matter, as long as they are decent on the inside. It is pretty easy to tell the good people from the not so good people. The good people are not the ones running around trying to make their good deeds known. They are the ones who on a day to day basis make good decisions trying not only to improve on their lives, but on the lives of others as well. Good people are all around you if you take the time to look. They maybe at the the store, or at a restaurant , or even the janitor at your hotel. They are less often found at the country club or the fancy fundraising fetes. Money makes the world go round, but at what cost? I can tell you this, if I were a trophy wife I would make darned sure to pass a little of my good fortune on to some of those women working their asses off for a whole lot less than they deserve and hope that by doing so I would give her the chance to feel that there are still a few good people out there and you can find them if you just take some time to look.
