Can I vent?
As much as I cherish my community and genuinely want to support everyone in their endeavors, I am beginning to realize a sobering truth: many people aren’t interested in learning the skills necessary to sustain themselves; instead, they prefer simply receiving help in the form of immediate solutions. It’s disheartening to witness this mindset because so many individuals fail to grasp the long-term benefits of acquiring these essential skills. Learning how to fish, both literally and metaphorically, is far more valuable than receiving a one-time meal. It equips them with the knowledge and tools to thrive independently, fostering resilience and self-sufficiency. This realization has left me pondering how I can encourage a shift in perspective, so that more people understand the importance of empowerment through education rather than reliance on others.
