Some of this is exactly what the system wants, some of this sounds a bit like you got the short end of the stick. Frustrating!

We skip sleep, mostly.

stop thinking it's the system. take control, responsibility, and work around obstacles.

there's an old Chinese story about a city intersection with a horse that has gone wild, bucking, creating havoc. the people are all standing there stuck and unable to get by. a master is walking through town, comes to the intersection and walks around the block.

hope your day gets better. 🤙😇❤️

I am so sorry to hear. Ooof all this is so mercury retrograde too. The system is calling for a redesign from the ground up and calling us for breakthroughs to new thresholds of reclaiming our sovereignty and birthrights. And that can be daunting when we are syphoned into survival mode. I honestly don't know how parents do it and not to speak of single parents. It's tough out there. This might sound impossible or counter intuitive but I feel there is potent medicine held in finding even a short window of a few minutes of solitude where you can regroup, ground down and come back to your center with the power of breath, clstillness, conscious silencing of the mind and meditation. It is a potent space especially in these incredibly unique times in the history of humanity from which we can participate as conscious creators of what's being birthed on earth at this time. a life will not remain this way.... Lots of massive changes are underway... This MO is on its way out... By which way is it going... Currently Soo Soo crucial to sit down and seriously take inventory and put your best conscious creators hat on and foot forward. Bless your life!

2 working parents is a scam by design. The system is designed so you can't get ahead AND properly parent your kids AND remain sane/have a good relationship.

We are made for community. Local community. Online acquaintances are nice, but nothing replaces your local community—friends, family, neighbors, etc. If you’re not plugged into a community, life feels impossible really fast.

Crap like accidents, leaking, etc always seem to land all at once for me too. Trust me I know the feeling, especially with 2 kids now. Sometimes I get through the whole day and feel like I never had 3 minutes to direct how I wanted, and THEN something goes wrong 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Life is a shitstorm a lot of the time. I just try to enjoy the fight. I’ll reach a point every now and again where so many things have gone wrong on top of each other that the next thing just makes me laugh hysterically 😂 (recent flooded basement from mild rain comes to mind). If the fight feels like it never lets up, all I can say is learn to enjoy wrestling with it if you can, and take just one thing (don’t focus on the likely 40 other things you wish you could do, but pick one), and try to make 1% progress on it every day, and when you can’t, just try not to let it stagnate and do something simple.

This might all be useless to you, but just in case something here helps. Things will get better, fix the problems one at a time and keep moving forward. Small progress feels like nothing, but it builds over time stronger than most realize.

Also, when you hit the toughest moments, just go hug your kids.

Sorry to hear that

Try to be more minimalistic

For kids you are their whole world and a role model

So you must keep going no matter what
