RE: The Myth of Safety

in #life5 years ago (edited)

Years ago, my parents did a tour to the Mexican pyramids.

When they arrived, their tour guide was wearing one shoe, and his other foot was bare.

My father, being concerned, asked him what happened to his other shoe.

The tour guide happily answered that he hadn't lost a shoe, he had found one!!!

There are rich people struggling with depression, and people with one shoe who are happy and grateful for what they have.

We will all struggle, and experience hardship and adversity, regardless of material wealth. It is within all of us to find happiness and meaning in our lives regardless of our situation.

Agreed. Am quite content with where I am at the moment, but certainly wouldn't go as far as calling it privileged.

It is also important to remind ourselves that there are things a lot more important than money I guess

@snubbermike Hey Mike, would powering down now be a loss or gain for you in terms of prices. Prices are making me wonder if you should actually power down so much

I'm s powering down, but wont sell at these prices..

That way I can quickly sell if/when prices recover

Makes more sense when you put it that way. Thought you needed some quick cash desperately

I might not sell. But just the fact that I might need it soon has me powering down.. 13 weeks is a long time to wait.

I have other savings, and have already interviewed for another position. But if it takes awhile to find work, I will be happy I did it..
