Though I won't call myself a lower middle-class suburbanite, I feel like this sometimes. I often have to remind myself (or mandy has to do it for me) that money does not necessarily bring or guarantee you happiness.
The only thing I need to stay positive is to remind myself that I could be a lot worse off than I am right now. Positive thinking is something I'm working on - apparently it breeds more positive actions and events. We'll see.

While this may be off-topic a bit, I feel I need to respond. If I was in a situation where I had no means to help myself and someone offered their help - sincerely - then I'd have no problem accepting. It might come down to personal pride, but I think it just as important to be humble enough to accept the help of others. Just make sure to thank them profusely.
