A Simple Life within 24 Hours

I grew up in a not so rich and not so poor family in Romblon.  Our life is just ordinary like others.  We have three meals a day, we have clothes and other necessities, but we don't have a lot of gadgets.  I can't identify if what's the big difference between a rich and poor family unless I was able to experience both, right?  So I need to have an idea if how can I differentiate a poor and rich life.

At least now, in my five years in working in call center, I can say, I am living with richness because I can buy and do anything I really want.  Money in my life is really a huge help for me and my family to have a good life.  In doing this article, I was inspired by some tv documentarist.  I want to live in a simple house with some important people of my life.  My aunt and grandma who were living in the not so modern part of Mindoro.

September 21, 2012 I left my modern world, I left my stressful job, I left my apartment, I left my friends, I left everything except my personal things and of course I left my electronic gadgets except my phone with camera.  I traveled alone for few miles from Manila for eight hours and the destination - North Uyao, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines.
