“There are all different kinds of ambition. Ambition usually refers to the male kind of ambition that makes men compete to the death and try to take all the money and not care whom they subjugate in the process. Society has deemed this form of ambition okay for men but never okay for women. -CANDACE BUSHNELL
“I have become far more willing to ask for what I want and what I need. We cannot be too afraid to take steps toward what we want and deserve. If you’re not stumbling, you’re not going anywhere. The only failure is failing to move at all.” AURORA JAMES
When I was a young makeup artist, I defined ambition as making enough money to get by—I just wanted to be able to pay my rent! Now ambition for me is about jumping into new projects that I don’t know anything about, but proving to myself that I can excel.”
I have never written to you before, but was compelled to reply to the letter from “Worried” who was concerned about her elderly mother-in-law sending money to charities who sent her solicitations.
When my mother was in her senior years and on a low fixed income, she was constantly getting those solicitations, and I never paid much attention until one day she mentioned she just didn’t have enough money to “pay” all of these.
She was interpreting them as bills and felt that they needed to be paid.
Please advise people who experience this with older people to pay close attention to why they are sending money.
Feeling charitable is one thing, but feeling impelled to pay a “bill” is quite another.
And some of these solicitations do look like bills, do they not? – Concerned
Dear Concerned: Yes – some of these charity solicitations do look like bills!Thank you for illuminating this issue; I hope your mother’s comment will help other families to make sure their elders are giving for the correct reason.
