Healer, I have gotten burned by taking what I thought were gifts because they were disguised as graduation gifts, birthday or Christmas gifts. Nope, they weren't and this is why I don't accept other's people help or at least financial help. Those items were held over my head for power trips and guilt trips. This happened too many times when I was first starting out and since then I would rather make it on my own than have to owe something to someone else. My mom is asking me now what I want for Christmas and I'm telling her camping equipment because I don't think she could use that for anything of power. She might be able to though, but I know that I can't tell her nothing because she'll still get me something. But that's off topic, I just wanted to explain to you why I don't accept financial help from others.

Maybe, I don't understand the class system that they have in the UK. I haven't been there so I can't comment on that. However, I do know that there are definite classes here too. I've been flat broke and I've been well-to-do. In either situation I chose how I reacted to them. I could be positive or negative. Negativity doesn't help anything and in fact makes the situation worse.

And I still ask the million dollar question: What are you going to do about it? Either find a way to escape your situation -or- change your outlook. But you are CHOOSING to be negative no one is holding a gun to your head.
