I have no idea what it feels like to be really well off. No idea how it feels to know with utter confidence that I can have whatever I want, if money can buy it. I have no idea how it feels to live in a family where violence is everyday and inescapable. I have no idea what it feels like to have no resources to draw on.
I wonder though if my imagination comes anywhere close to the reality of it. And I wonder if those among us who live comfortable lives can have any real understanding of what it feels like to not be so blessed.
Sometimes I stand behind someone at the checkout and have to stop my jaw dropping at how much they spend on food.
Each to their own...

Someone needs to police the checkouts, stop people and say ''You can't feed a family on this shit !'' All my meals are budget...wholemeal pasta, and a can of tomatoes for $1, or out of my garden in summer, an onion and herbs, from my garden, vinegar, sugar etc and done. Rice salads in summer, brown rice, tomatoes and spring onions etc from my garden. Life's not cheap anymore....but I am.
