We really don't talk enough about how big a role grief plays in the average adult life. It's more than losing someone to death; we grieve for many things, and without proper coping skills, it can really be a lot.

What do you do?
Operate as a cog in the machine of capitalism bringing people the material goods they require.
Why?
I am in a great reset portion of my life after a mental health episode and drug addiction dragged me down from the peak of my adult life. It pays the bills as I work on passion projects, finish my education, and get back to what I want to do, not what I have to do.
What should we read?
I'm currently re-reading Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes. Widely seen as the first modern novel, it tells the story of knight-errant Don Quixote as he fights for the values of chivalry and justice, even if the world he sees is only visible to himself.
