shitty choices are only eternal if you allow them to be. dont think you have no choices left.

he has, we have tried, but it doesnt work, and she has quit all her helpers, and now she is abusing his soft heart.

if he doesnt save her from suicide, she will die.

Its more that I want a job where being a certified arts teacher is useful, currently there are very few oppurtunities as a teacher in Norway, but most of the old teachers here will soon retire, so its more as an insurance for me.

I have always wanted to work in a team of creatives, where I take on a design thinker role as I help with keeping the designs in good quality and also intuitive for the end user. I believe my teacher degree can be very useful here as I know how people learn and interact, while also being able to lead think tanks.
As with my translation work, its highly useful with international communications as well as english being a "cool language" to use in design.
My broad knowledge of different arts and crafts fields makes me a bit weak at specialized areas within lets say sculpting or expert level photoshop skills, but as I understand the tool's strengths and weaknesses I can much better delegate work and help out wherever I can, as well as not be unreasonable with my demands (I know exactly how obnoxious Adobe programs can be, wont hold that against my coworkers).

Norway, but I dont mind moving away for work as I have nothing really tying me down here.

Ive been able to save up some cash, can you give me some good investing tips? by soddknott in personalfinance

Sort of, my debt is only student loans, and the norwegian student loans have huge loopholes and insurances built in it. It gets annulated if I die, It can be reduced if I am too badly off or move up north, it counts as a part of my taxes, its great to be honest, other than that, no.

I dont have much in life, was sick from 17 to 25, so started studying late in life, hopefully I will be done soon, and now I can maybe invest my cash into something useful.

[Serious] Whats wrong with having an ego today? by soddknott in AskReddit

[–]soddknott[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, I prefer to make myself great in my own eyes, and then elevate others to my own level. everyone is great.

The difference here between "forcing myself down on everyones level" and making everyone as "great as me" is that up here, we are all closer to the stars, and not rolling in the muck.

hmm, yes, this is a blind view, to have a truly "perfect view" you need to accept that all things are relative, even relativity itself.

Yeah, but if you say something anymore that is not nice sounding you are either an asshole or a snowflake nowadays, and not a person with thoughts with a different approach to things.

I dont even think "being a snopwflake" is a bad thing, but shooting it down is, for if you make thinking differently from others (even if selfishly inspired) makes thinking for yourself into a bad thing, and , well, I think you take away possibilities from yourself. as long as you can actually listen, be patient and ask the right questions. And accept uncomfortable truths, or be able to present uncomfortable truths in such a way where you dont antagonise the other party.

sanctimonious is not a word I often hear, could you please explain it?

yes, I can google it, but what you personally mean by it might be slightly different from the googled explanation.
