Wicca Wiccans Pagans and Free Souls.. live different.. be Neopagan!

With the 2nd Depression looming ever closer I am seeing and hearing of people who are jobless and homeless. Crime rates are escalating, depression/suicide rates are rising... the world is suffering.

My question to all of you is How are You? As a community do you need help? Financially most of us are strapped, so monetary help may not be the best option... but how can I as an individual help? I have a list next to my altar of people who need prayers to remain strong. Can I add you to the list?

How are you handling the struggle to keep your head above water? Any helpful tips on how to remain sane in this insane world would be appreciated.

You can add me to the list. I was recently pretty much forced into salary pay....I work for a nonprofit organization so its something I expected. I lost all overtime and that is what really helped me get by month to month. That is not the only reason to my hard times though. Of course the consistently rising prices of everything is ever hurtful to my pockets. Although, I don't own a car I still have to pay ppl to drive me back and forth so the gas prices rising still affects me. The bill that is sucking me dry though is my power bill. I have gas heat and lately my power bill has almost pushed $400 and I'm a pretty conservative user (normally its under $200). That alone is taking all my grocery money away. I haven't bought groceries in almost 2 months. I make it though. I really try not to let financial hardships get me down.....b/c it works itself out in time.
What has helped me out is something I've done for a while..is using my local "flea market" as a grocery stop. They have perfectly good produce and boxed/canned goods. & most of the time you can haggle which i kind of enjoy.
Also, when I go to town I try to plan everything in just a few stops that are close together to save time and gas.
& with the gas heat I only use it at night time when its below 45 or so....i like the cold so it works for me.
You got it Cara! You are on the list! Goddess Bless Cara... my heart is with you!
