Trying to survive under capitalism

All our relationships are vital for our survival

In order to help bring inner balance of respect for my energy and writing, all new writing (including RLoT, Witch Sh!t, and new essays like this one) will be behind a paywall. Having a paid subscription not only puts a couple dollars in my bank account to pay my bills, it also encourages me emotionally, mentally, and spiritually to continue sharing my work and offers reciprocity for my time and energy to produce this work. If you benefit from these resources and cannot afford the $7 per month subscription fee, please contact me directly and we can work something out.

Everyone I know right now is either actively struggling financially (and therefore also struggling emotionally and psychologically) or are in a state of fear that at any moment they will be. Friends. Clients. Family. Me. Everyone is feeling the pressure of this system of harm starting to falter and break down. Unfortunately, I believe we are a long ways from capitalism actually being gone and while it is taking its final long gasping breaths we are all going to suffer, more and more.

As we continue to attempt to survive, our relationships are going to become more and more important. All our relationships. With ourselves. With other humans. With animals. With trees. With all forms of water. With our yards. With our homes. How we connect is important, and understanding that we actually have all these various relationships is important. Our survival isn’t only dependent on other humans, its dependant on everything on this planet.
