Friday, October 30, 2026 (Am I really normal?)

I talked with many friends and many persons in my community. One thing frequently came to me from many conversations that they are satisfied on the night of Thursday while receiving payment for their work. They don't like their job but money removes their dissatisfaction and all their pains. When they see the bank account, they feel mentally satisfied. However, I try to test my situation and it is horrible. I don't feel extraordinarily happy after seeing my account on Thursday night. In fact, I check my account maybe one or two day later. It does not mean that I was never happy to see my account. In the UK, When I got my first salary from my first NI job, a part time job, I was happy. After then, I never think too much about it. It does not mean that I am not honest in my job. I love to do my tasks even though I don't like it. Because I have sense of responsibility about my job. 

In my whole life, I never got a real kick, an activity giving satisfaction, for earning money. Money or wealth is needed to carry out our life and to lead a good life but is it the solo purpose of life?

Another logic as per them is that money can solve a lot of issues in their life and people related with them. In contrast, People can not solve all the problems of the life. Moreover, It  adds new needs and people need more money to fulfill the new desires. While they are solving existing problems, new problems are knocking the door. 

I personally feel that I don't interact with people too much or I interact with people rarely. That is why I don't get that mindset that all have in my community. We, all the Bangladeshis, have been learning from our childhood that the value of respect is much more than the value of money. In reality, we just study in order to earning money nothing else.
