I'm free to decide where my money goes, free to spend it on people and things that matter.

As I sat at the small kitchen table, sunlight filtering through the window, I weighed the possibilities in my mind.

What did I want to do with this newfound freedom? My thoughts drifted to the orphanage, a place that had always held a special spot in my heart.

Once, I was nearly an orphan myself, and now that I had the means, I wanted to help those children, to give them a future brighter than the one that had once seemed destined for me. The decision came quietly, like a gentle breeze stirring the leaves.

I would keep some of the money for myself, for small pleasures and future needs, but the rest-yes, the rest would go to the orphanage.

Those children deserved better.
