Thanks.
Although, I’m with Voltaire when he said, “Everything that’s said should be true, but not everything that is true should be said.”

Not sure what you’re asking. I cut the emoji out of your previous comment, if that’s what you meant.

You also need financial stability

Thanks for commenting.
Of course, I disagree. Sadhu, vagabonds, hermits, farmers: There are lots of people who live good lives of financial variability. (See: Diogenes the Cynic, Hanshan, Chomei, Buddha, Jesus, Thoreau, etc.) The squirrel life may be the most popular approach, but it doesn’t seem to me to be essential to a life well lived.

You’re right but not entirely right. There are places where financial stability is very key for one’s survival, I feel it’s narrowed down to where you’re from. Just saying

My take on things needed to have a good life as a person who struggles everyday with trauma might be very different from others. 1. Support system that you can rely on 2. Strength to keep going when things are hard 3. Kindness and compassion 4. Good health. Everything else is a result of individuals effort.
My journey is an open book.
