Every so often I give a few bucks(far less than the worth of knowledge I got from it)

    How did you do that and, you know, still afford basic necessities? I already lean on donations from others to survive. Or was that your situation too, you just “re-donated” a bit.

      I was not in the extremely unlikely scenario where the basic necessities cost exactly as much as my income.

      A person is either ahead or behind. The probability their income and their expenses actually match, down to the last dollar, is vanishingly small.

      Whenever you find in your life that you have no options, you can be sure you are hallucinating that state of affairs.

      Read Elie Wiesel’s Night for an exploration of just how deep freedom goes.

        Well, I’m behind. Book recommendation noted, I wonder if my public library could track down a copy.
