Those things we want to do, we find a way. Those things we don't want to do, we find an excuse.
Are they expensive, maybe, all depends on your perspective. I have paid $1,300 for a bow but there is no way I will pay $150 for a pair of jeans, just seems ridiculous to me for jeans to cost that much. Other people probably say it's stupid to pay that for a bow when I could have bought several pair of those jeans with that money. It's all relative.
True happiness is not having what you want but wanting what you have.
