Subnostr

I’m going to be super reflective for a minute. So bear with me.

There was a time in my life when I was just another corporate person. Like, slap a bar code on me. I was just a number. A cog in a useless wheel.

I chose change.

Now, every human in my orbit is building and innovating. I’m a freelance human. Free range. Just roaming.

And being her on nostr, you all remind me of this daily. LFG 🧡💜🧡💜♾️

I so envy the uncertainties and "figuring outs" of entrepreneurship.

I am a cog, have been one for a long time. I sure hope I can too learn what I can to be able to free myself from that.

It is not easy to be a business owner or self employed. My husband is both, therefore I am the one bringing home the health benefits.

I kid ya not. If we could go back to the days when I was able to pay premiums for a family of 4, mortgage, car, food, school supplies... for late 1990's early 2000's rates?

Man... I'd be opening a gallery, a craft store, teaching arts and crafts, teaching Spanish, volunteering at some nursing home...

So many freedoms and so many real societal contributions are 100% suppresed and eliminated due to #debt / #wage #slavery.

I have very little debt... Oh... I forgot...

I have #medical #debt....

Yuh...that minor detail that keeps me in the system.

**sighs**

Seriously. It’s not for everyone.

And I would be full of 💩 if I said I wasn’t pantsing it. I get my ass kicked a lot. I deal with all the fear 😧 daily.

Friend of mine just paid off student loans that were twice mine… and only because she’s in a 2-income household.

I do things because I am either crazy or just don’t fear risk like most do…

But overall, I think corporate life kicked my ass far worse. So I’ll take this crazy life.
