I earn only a little,
but each penny is earned
so ethically.
Raising awareness
on health and environment,
sharing my art
about good life philosophy,
talking of empathy,
parenting tips,
my vulnerability.
My wallet does not swell,
big and rapid,
but my conscience is intact,
and I sleep so well,
no guilt ghost grills me.
No medicine in cabinets.
I feel good about myself.
This earning is sacred money,
healthier than honey.
I want to keep going this path,
will not join the rat race.
will not bath in stress,
will protect my peace,
will keep going with integrity,
guided by my moral compass/

FLOWER Bloom 2/25/26 Wednesday By Mariann Carroll Karen had been with Tony for 7 years. Tony started acting strangely after her surgery. He would mow the lawn in the rain and be on his cellphone. He started pushing Karen away. Tony came clean about seeing someone. Karen moved out two months later. Karen moved in with a friend. She felt betrayed.

Healthier than honey <3 I adored this poem and deeply believe in this mindset! Money isn't everything, and it can even corrupt and cause great evils. It's a joy to have honest work ^^
Earning money in a way that doesn't give against our conscience is a blessing. Loved this!
Earning ethically might not pay well, but it's such a good feeling!
