On the other side of things I would like to ask any members to share there views on how to survive in an enviroment where abundance is no longer the norm.
I am personally in a less than great financial situation but have learned to adapt, mend, make do, upcycle, repurpose, re evaluate what is important, regain a sense of community ect.

Where as many people consider 'abundance' the norm .... I personally think
sufficient to be more the norm and I don't crave *abundance*

I too do all those things mend, make do, adapt revamp, recycle etc. and
mostly not because I cant afford, but because it gives me a sense
of achievement and I can put what I have saved towards something that
will give others some degree of pleasure or a rare treat!!
P.S. I think your avatar winked at me??
