Falling: Pg. 98- I do not weep because I’m unhappy I weep because I have everything yet I am Unhappy

On my bed with a pen.
To my dearest reader,
I have everything, dresses and bags, education and food. I have everything, a mansion and quirk, maids and cooks. I have it nice, never having to struggle about taxes or cleaning. I have it all, everything anyone could ever want! The daughter of a rich gentleman and fair lady, I have a nice body and have good manners. I’m smart and kind, everything a parent could ask for. You probably think that me, Yaoyorozu Momo, has a good and happy life, never missing a thing. I can take everything I want and don’t have to wait till times get better. Times are always good, with all this money and property you must think that I’m living a dream. That everyday of my life is something new. You must think that having everything is a dream. Everyone always tells me that it’s one of their dreams to have my life, to have everything. They wish to be born into a rich family, take all they could ever want with that money and privilege. I don’t understand, though, why people want my life. Why would they want to weep into their arms for no reason at all? Why would they want to be so unhappy? What am I unhappy about? I have everything. I have everything I could ever want yet I’m laying on my bed weeping. It seems selfish of me to tell you this but, Money and objects don’t make you happy, something most people have a hard time believing. You’re jealous of me because I have objects and money, I’m jealous of you because you got to live a normal life, you didn’t have to be classy and presentable all the time. You didn’t have someone hating you just because you were rich. You have real relationships with people, they don’t just want to become friends because of money. You have so much contact and a whole new vision on the world! You learn from doing things yourself..you know how to live. In reality, you have everything, relationships and knowledge. I’ve just got money and lifeless objects. But do remember, ‘Everything’ gets boring after a while.
-With love,
Momo Yaoyorozu
