Do you really have enough cash?
Why do you try to look expensive?
Don't become broke because of material possessions.
Don't get into debt to appear expensive.
Do not emulate someone else's life.
Do you even have what it takes to appear expensive?
If not,
Don't push yourself too much.
Don't live an unauthentic life.
The truth has a way of emerging.
They'll eventually learn who you are.
One day, you'll be in trouble.
What if you require assistance from them?
Knowing that they identify you as a wealthy person.
How will you approach them?
Will you not feel ashamed?
Life must be real.
Be yourself.

Perfect Little Pirate
The rough, sodden rope bit into her fingers as she swung over the roiling water far below. Reaching out with the toe of her boot, she managed to catch hold of the rain-soaked railing of the ship- and promptly slipped. Throwing herself forward, she landed hard on the deck, slamming her elbows against the wood planks. The sharp yelp of pain quickly bubbled into a laugh, and she rolled onto her back, laughing up at the gray sky as a torrent of rain washed away the soot covering her skin.
