Wow! I read this article and now I will follow the link to read the post by @tarazkp
I must admit that when I first read what you said about the @tarazkp post I was not understanding the wisdom of it. But then I realize that I have been conditioned to feel I had to own a car, own a house, and other external signs of success, regardless of my true financial condition. I don’t have three months of expenses saved up because I have a family and continual unexpected expenses. Kids get sick, cars break down, plumbing leaks, etc

I get a raise each year, which doesn’t match inflation, but I am thankful for getting something, but why do I still feel undervalued?

I have a car, house, two kids and all the bills that go with it. I am happy and I feel blessed to have these things, because I know there are people who don’t have them, but the struggle to keep them makes me anxious.

I am afraid of losing what I have.
I am trying to make 2020 a better year by reading books I find and books I see reviewed on Steemit to improve my situation, but there’s a reason for a few beers on Friday night everywhere in the world, “The Struggle is Real”.
