Upcoming hardships are inevitable. We need to be extremely cautious with how we proceed in the coming week. Emotional insecurities and financial stresses are going to be considerable factors in the coming days. Take extra time this week to breathe, regulate, and remember the larger picture.
Dont go crazy and spend all your money to make a temporary emotional turmoil feel better. But dont lash out at someone if they want to hang out and it may involve some money. Finances are tight all around, everyone knows this, saying I don't have the money for that right now is perfectly acceptable. No one is expecting you to be rich right now and its not a personal attack or even a misunderstanding if they ask to go to the movies or to see a game or something like that.
It can be deceptively easy to mix money and emotions. Especially in a capitalist society that is built on telling you that you'll feel better if you buy just one more thing. "This new shirt will fix the heartbreak" or "this new game will be the true serotonin boost that changes everything"
Right now, we don't need anything new that isnt truly a necessity.
