I don't want to be a money slave who works long hours to pay for rent and taxes and save up for retirement. The more you earn, the more you spend and the more you are eager to own more. These are two truths that everyone knows, yet most of people tend to ignore them. Fear and greed is base for money slavery.
   Money doesn't matter to me. I have never had as much as now, although I don't have permanent income. I don't attribute worth to things, instead I value well spent time, experience and adventures.
   I have enjoyed all volunatry works and jobs for pocket money I have done, but never quite well-paid jobs. I would go to a shift unwillingly, and it made me think why I am doing this. Whereas voluntary work I see to be more valueable - it gives experience and satisfaction.
   Every loan you pay back more than twice of its actual worth, and your money profits solely the bank. It doesn't even go to the state social funds (which aren't much fairer either). I feel truly relieved and free that I don't wear shackles of debt for the rest of my life.

Everyone must read the first chapter (The Rich Don’t Work for Money) in "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert T. Kiyosaki. It will take only a few hours, but can be a life-changer on your attitude towards work, money and thinking.

"Most people fail to realize that in life, it’s not how much money you make. It’s how much money you keep."

"Mood swings"

We met
In my brain
Between neural synapses
In the middle of lungs and throat
You come at night
And go in the morning

And here we are
Crazy mad and furious
Later on self esteem drops
And we sink in tears
Desperate

Is that me
My real myself
Or just a feeling
Controllable
And sculpted like a plasticine

I take you in hands
And tear apart
Pull the rooted parts
Out of my body
And throw the dirt out of an open window

Since I started to eat vegetarian, my diet has become healthier and more various.

🍝 I used to hold stereotypes: vegetarian meals are boring, it's expensive, I won't feel full etc. In fact, I eat restaurant worthy dishes (but for low price) for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Take spinach omelette, chickpea curry and pumpkin puree for example. I also make vegetarian homemade burgers and sushi. My dishes are creative and colorful.

💉 Moreover, my blood test results are better than before! So those who think vegetarians must watch out their iron levels - take that.

💪 Not to mention, I always feel energetic. My muscle mass has increased (I still eat eggs and dairy products, but large part of proteins comes from legumes).

🙏 I believe strongly that you must listen to your body what it requires, therefore vegetarian diet might not be for everyone. And that's ok, I don't judge.

🌱 I love to see (as everyone knows, we eat with eyes too), cook and enjoy fresh food that doesn't carry any sacrifice.
