This is an odd request, but FListers, will you please share your happiest, more hopeful music right now?

I found out that my family's financial problems are even bigger than we thought. That car trouble a few weeks ago fucking gutted us and we have <$400 in the bank. My medical bills are overdue because I don't have the cash for them, and I wasn' ( Read more... )

I listen to a lot of Kings of Convenience when I want to cheer myself up. They're very calming and mellow.

(On your concerns - if you got PayPal, I could help out a bit? Norwegian salaries are higher than most places on average and I am making good money at the moment.)

I'm still trying to get out of my insurance plan. I just talked to one of my managers who got screwed over by our insurance in the exact same way I did. She'll get back to me by Monday and... I may just quit my job and reapply.

So hopefully I can figure out something.

Just the fact you offered is making me cry again (I'm a bit sensitive right now) but I have to decline. It's a stupid societally-imposed poor-guilt, but I can't accept money like that. I don't know why, it's just kind of unfathomable to me. I'm floored by your generosity, to be honest. Gives me some hope for the future, really.

Thank you.

I can understand that sort of guilt, yeah. But really, to me it's just following my social democratic principles. The world is unfair and shit, so we must even it out as best we can. My principles are worth very little if I do not live by them. *shrugs* It's not about being generous, it's about being fair. You have nothing to feel guilty about in my eyes at all. *I* have something to feel guilty about if I just let the world be as it is and only cared for myself. That's how I see it. (The US and Norway have different views on wealth and poverty and society, I really do think.)

Anyway. I hope things get better for you and that your troubles are sorted out. But should you ever need it, just send me a PM or an e-mail. The offer will be open indefinitely. And I shall send all the good vibes I can.

I'm so sorry you're going through such a hard time; my best wishes for things to get better. My suggestions are kind of eclectic and weird, I don't know, but they cheer me up and I hope they'll do the same for you.
