I’ve been feeling incredibly grateful lately. ♡
Having been here throughout the bear market, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who consistently helped and supported me and others. I’m also deeply appreciative of the opportunity to always be surrounded by great art. These words may not mean much to some, but the gratitude I feel for certain people, and this opportunity, stays with me every day.
I’m working hard to reach my goal of $380 by December 23, 2024. Many new pieces will be released this week, offering 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% referral bonuses, as part of that effort. This amount, combined with other income, will help me pay off overdue debts, cover medications for my mental health treatment, attend my psychiatrist appointment on December 11, afford therapy, carefully choose what foods to buy (I have extremely severe food selectivity due to autism), and sustain myself—though it’s a struggle—until January 21, when the cycle inevitably begins again.

This month, my expenses are even higher due to overdue bills, my psychiatrist appointment, and other personal needs.
The Brazilian minimum wage is R$1,412 (BRL), which converts to $231.98 (USD). It’s an extremely low amount, and many families live on it.
I’m grateful every single day for the privilege of living off my art and seeing other dear friends doing the same. I’ve set some resolutions for the coming year: to focus on being healthier, creating more art, studying even more, and being happier, even if it requires careful effort and planning.
I’m still trying. Please keep trying, too.
This flower is for you all. ♡ Thank you for everything, always. 0 reply
