Feeling Alive Again..
When life gets too overwhelming..
I am happy as a clam in my tiny home away from town. I have been here 6 months now, and I can’t begin to express how much I love it.
I lived near downtown for over 20 years in a condo I “ owned” and I thought I’d be there forever.
I did the things I was supposed to- went to college to get a good job to support myself and my child.
I played the game. I was a cog in the works of Healthcare in Canada and I was so very proud.
I am an Empath. I feel you from 5 feet away. I was told twice that I cared “ too much”.
I was great at my job, and was loved by all. Not one single complaint of any kind over 10 years..
I paid my bills. I was a good citizen..
Then interest rates doubled and my mortgage went from $1200 to $1800 a month. My strata fees were $500 a month…
I got out. I panicked at first. I resisted with my stubborn heart..
Until I had to pay my Property taxes last July.
$1900.
I decided to sell. My family thought I had gone insane. We had a fight and I told them to piss off.
I paid those F- ing taxes for the last time.
I am now surrounded by trees and the sounds of nature.
I have apologized to my family.
I am in a beautiful place where I can hear children laughing and dogs barking and the normal peace and quiet I dreaded when I was younger lol
I’m finally Free.
The peace I feel?
Priceless 💕🫂💕




Great Story once again Cassandra, it put a smile on my face! :)
