Finding Meaning Amidst Economic Hardship

I feel like with how the world is today it's hard to find that balance. Things are so much more expensive and it's harder to shift to what meaningful. But I do the little things to get that feeling. Like buy myself some little treat a bit more often if I can.

@tengohipo it’s a privilege in this society to be able up pursue your passion. I feel like if the world operated differently, if people had the freedom and security to do what they love instead of what pays the bills, we could achieve amazing things on this planet. Universal basic income? I am lucky enough to have a job that is meaningful to me. I am an ESL teacher. On the side, I started a passion project, The Purple Phoenix Collective, a community of trauma survivors healing together through creativity, spirituality, and mutual support. I am creating trauma-informed art/poetry workshops (first one is this Saturday), support groups, and I’m offering coaching. I’m not clear about what the future will hold, but as Rumi said, “as you start to walk on the way, the way appears”. I’m just going with the flow and following my heart. We’ll see what happens.
