What is the great Australian dream?

in #freedom6 years ago

Breaking the Shackles and making your own path.

What is your version of the Great Australian Dream. For the most part it used to be owning your own home full of possessions, buying a new car when there's nothing wrong with the old one, a boat and going on holidays twice a year. To achieve this you must work 40 hours a week giving up the best part of your day. This means time away from the people you love. Feeling stressed, tired, stuck in a rut, over worked, under paid...a slave to society.

We're encouraged to work 5 or 6 days a week then take the weekend off. Spend it dining out, going to a show, shopping for things you don't need with money you don't have.....use your credit card and accumulate more debt, stress and useless possessions. If your neighbour gets a new car go buy a bigger and faster one. It's important to keep up with the Jones'....you don't want to appear poor or under privileged or less cool.

This is indoctrinated into us from birth. It's far from our reality.

We decided years ago we didn't want the stressful life that society has imposed upon us. We decided living debt free with only the possessions we need to get buy was our goal in life. To be released from the shackles that tie us to a life of pretentiousness, greed, longing, competition and unachievable goals.
We do what we want when we want. Every day is spent working....on ourselves physically, spiritually, emotionally.

This life is not for everybody. Some people will always be slaves to the wealthy. Working the best part of their lives away striving to achieve what TV, social media and the government tells us we must. However, this is the life for us. Peaceful, exciting, adventurous, stress free, educational, interesting, fulfilling and healthy...physically, spiritually and mentally.
Wouldn't have it any other way.
