Unfortunately, we associate (real) work with cash in today's society. Because we need to work to get cash to function. But if we already have that cash, as savings, why do we still need to work for cash?

Also, so many people know and experience how unpaid work - such as fixing a pond (congrats!!) or writing - feels like work, it actually feels like the real work worth doing. Keep inspiring us!

By the way, The Pathless Path affiliate link is inaccessible to me. I can access the main membership link from the website tho.

Without the tyranny of an insane work schedule… I’ve found something as simple as mowing the lawn to be an incredibly satisfying experience.

There’s nothing quite as good for the body, mind and soul as manual labor outside in the sunshine.
