Title: Nobody Is Coming To Save You (And That Is Actually Okay) Post by: slapper on December 02, 2025, 07:29:44 PM I used to think that someone would help. Government would provide jobs. Schools would teach things that are useful. Companies would have to train workers. Society would take care of hard working people. This was how I thought for a very long time. Maybe you did too.
Then I began paying attention. I saw that the places that need it most receive the least help. I witnessed how more often than not, training programs are cut first when money is tight. I saw that the companies want "ready-made" workers but don't like to create them. I saw that the gap between rich places and poor places is getting bigger, not smaller. And I realized something that changed the way I thought about everything. The system is not broken. It is operating just as designed. But it just was never made for people like us. This sounds dark but actually it set me free. Once I stopped expecting people to help me, I began helping myself. I stopped waiting for the perfect course or the perfect job or the perfect opportunity. I began to learn things by my own self. I began building skills that I chose to, not skills someone told me to get. I started connecting with people on the internet who think the same way. We share knowledge. We help each other. We do not ask permission. This is what self-reliance is all about. Not being alone, but picking who you rely upon. I suppose this is why so many of us have ended up here, in spaces like this forum. We are people who quit waiting. We saw that the old paths are overcrowded and the gates are closing. So we began walking through the forest instead. It is harder. There is no map. But at least we are moving. https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/12/02/URBgQ8.png Title: Re: Nobody Is Coming To Save You (And That Is Actually Okay) Post by: Ucy on December 02, 2025, 08:43:33 PM A false freedom is full of landmines, pitfalls, traps, and things that can get the escaping prisoners, who remain blind and immoral, killed, or fall into more serious problems.
But true freedom is from higher power. HE makes the free to be moral, and opens their eyes to avoid the dangers. Ofcourse, it's important to build communities of like-minded people where you can exchange goods and services and do other useful but safe things, preferably on transparent and alternative system that people can hardly find issue with.

It is all happens for real, only that you (we) are unlucky to meer or experience them while some people are just so lucky to enjoy those privileges.I used to think that when you are right and goes to the law court justice will be served and prevail to you. So I just had to live that common life that does not hurt others and law abiding but there are lot of innocent being jailed for what they did not do and justice of the law is no more genuine while justice is given based on who have the money to buy it. I used to think that when you come from a wealthy home you don't have to work your ass out for survival believing riches are inherited and you just have to keep spending all that inherited without establishment. But along the journey I discovered you would go poor if you only have to spend your savings without profit inflows. I thought when I graduates from the university with a good grade you will not stress to find a job meanwhile... Even the first class degree holders could not secure a job without intermediary official connection. I thought education was a core profession and skills was for the less privileges but in reality even degree holders had to acquire skills for self employment due to lack of jobs and employments. Life is just so tough and inevitable where reverse is always the case of the reality. |
