RE: Why You Need to Live for Yourself too and Not Just for Your Kids

in #ecotrain7 years ago

I'm not only upvoting. I shared this on other social media. So many parents are afraid to admit that it absolutely sucks to simply becomes a slave to fiat currency for the bare minimum needs and never actually "be there" for your family. Individuals wind up having to work so hard to pay bills because we no longer keep the family unit together and work as a cohesive unit sharing responsibilities. We no longer provide our needs, we voluntarily slave for them. Well, that's changing. We are breeding a new generation that is returning to old values and old lifeways that are far more effective at facilitating happiness than this capitalistic, consumerist droning. Thanks for standing up and shining your beacon of hope for humanity. I see you found @ecotrain too. I just delegated a little yesterday. Watch for my 👁❤️ posts, I'm sure you'll like them. I'd also like to tag you in my next #discussion post in a week or so. Hope that's cool. I'm a stay home Mr. Mom of 2 unschooled kids. See you on discord sometime.

I am so glad you found this worthy of reading and sharing. Means a lot to me. I feel as parents, we put enormous pressure on ourselves and that pressure in turn makes us pressurize our kids. I wish it does stop sometime. I am trying to bring that difference in my life at least. Looking forward to be a part of your discussions and to talking to you in discord.
