Friday, March 13, 2009 ( 2:32 AM ) shut up christine forgetful i find it interesting that now that i have a little bit o money coming in (and i mean a liiitttle), i've become Greedy McGreedster in the sense that i am keenly aware of how much money i have in my pocket i'm still broke, but now i know it, you know what i mean? i have this much money. whereas a few months ago i was more broke than i am now but i gave like it was nothing (like literally...nothing) yet i gave it without hesitation. it might have been nothing, but it was our nothing now i gots something, and its MINE my mind is occupied with now i can afford this & i need more of that which is a slippery place to be. i could easily get sucked in but perhaps what's most dangerous of all: i find myself paying instead of giving. by paying i mean giving with the expectation of getting something in return, even if its just a thank you; its the idea that i am owed something i'm going to try an experiment. for the next thirty days i'm going to give like i'm broke off my ass. i shall call it The Broke Off My Ass Experiment. (clever, no?) The rules: 1. Give like you got (and get) nothing. Give at least one thing each day, without spending any money. In the words of Afro Rican - give give give give it all you got. 2. I can't think of any other rules. I'm making this up as i go along. Clause: add rules when necessary. i will document my field notes here, not with the intention of flaunting my attempts, but under the assumption that my findings will be valuable for others #
