We live in a fucked up world.
So the other day I went to visit my grandma and grandpa, because I hadn't seen them for quite some time now.
They have always supported me through my life despite their situation so I try to spend some time to see them now and then, that's the least I can do to make them happy.
We live in Bulgaria and both of them are living on pension. Which is worth roughly 75SBD converted. That's per person.
So the last time I went to visit them they were both really sad which wasn't typical for them, as they are happy people all the time.
I asked why they were sad and they told me that sooner or later the time would come that they would eventually die.
Now that by itself made me feel like crap but that wasn't the point.
They asked me sadly if I could take care of their Funeral and told me that they didn't want to burden my life, so they were collecting money from their pension to pay for the Funeral.
If the first remark wasn't enough this made me feel even more depressed of our current social condition.
It's like we are machines that make money for others and once our expiration date runs out we have to pay to be recycled.
So you tell me.. What have we turned life into? Is it worth living knowing that you owe to live. Like having a life on rent.
I just wanted to spread the word so people know how fucked up life is for some people, so appreciate everything you have.
Cheers and much love for all.
