you could def use to read some books. old ones. stat.
congrats on being financially independent!
and sorry!
that's one good-ish thing about struggling financially - you don't have as much luxury to navel-gaze.
but if you're not actively working to undermine democracy, like at least some folks with money, then good on ya.
more concretely, i think one thing that is true for many people, whether they realize it or not, is that 'living for other people' is, or can be, 'the answer' or at least 'an answer'.
it sounds either cheesy or cliche or impossibly hippie, but i think in a sane world it'd probably just be common sense.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
good luck!
ps a dog can help, even if you just foster for a while.
