I'm sitting here staring at my budget, my heart pounding with devotion to her. She's been pushing me lately, telling me I can give more, that she *believes* in my capacity to serve her financially. I was desperate, nearly frantic. I'm already handing over almost every dollar I earn. Then it hit me: food. It's the only thing left that costs me any real money each month. Human food is so expensive. A single can of soup can be two or three dollars. Even cheap staples like rice and beans add up when you eat them every single day. So I looked into dog food. The cheapest wet dog food in bulk comes out to about fifty cents a can. Some brands are even less if you buy the huge cases. Let’s do the math. If I eat three "meals" a day... that's 90 cans a month. At fifty cents a can, that’s $45 for the entire month. Before this realization, I was spending at least $300 a month just to feed myself like a normal person. That means... $300 - $45 = $255. Two hundred and fifty-five extra dollars for her each month. That's not just spare change. That's real money she can use for something beautiful while I... fulfill my purpose down here. My stomach might knot up at the smell and texture sometimes, but the thought of pleasing her makes it worth it.
