Slept in "my" room in my parents' apartment for a few days while I'm looking for a new place. My own apartment is still a bit too inhospitable to stay there full time because of the noise.
The stay at my parents' has been enlightening in terms of money. I've never been so aware of how much of their lives is centered around money... in a very absurd way. Pleasure, time & effort saved, health, etc - these things take a back seat in favor of money... while logic and common sense seem to go out the window. Doing things in the context of personal development is also almost nonexistant, except in theory.
I'm realizing this is the environment where I've been raised. I'm also becoming aware of my own glass ceilings in this area and how ridiculously stupid those are. Nothing like seeing the consequences of your faulty beliefs to make you want to drop them like hot potatoes.
