This is so true. Thank you for the reminder. I often find myself chasing after money or a certain lifestyle, and all that chase brings me is anxiety and a feeling of inadequacy. I am trying to go back to my roots (I am Native American - Peoria Tribe) as my family is heavily involved with tribal activities and the Native American way of life (traditional, not so much how life is on the reservations) really resonates with me. I'm learning to let go of things that just add clutter to my life - one of the best decisions I've made in recent months is deleting my facebook account. I am a heavy Reddit user as well and I am finding myself being drawn more and more to steemit's culture. It's posts like these that help me discover my true self and it's just so refreshing to be a part of a community that shares my sensibilities.

Thanks for posting and best of luck on Steemit! I'm going to be blogging some of my misadventures from my past myself, if that's something that interests you, check it out! <3
