"Buy cheap, buy twice" has always been something I've lived by. I'd rather have something suitable and buy it once or not have it at all. So I should be doing the same when it comes to therapy. Whether or not it proves to be feasible, the options should only ever be: the good quality, … Continue reading Economics Of Empathy

The world is a Squid Game worldWhere masked gatekeepers stand guardDeciding the rulesAnd when and how you may progress; There is no magical chest at the end of the rainbowNo reward at the top of the hillNo matter how you express yourselfIn trying to reach for it There is nothing there to reach for(Except within … Continue reading Squid Game World
