I Sent Money Home Again and Now I Can't Pay My Own Rent - a story about supporting family financially

Sending money home when you barely have enough for yourself is one of the loneliest kinds of love — and you're allowed to feel the weight of it. Caring for others doesn't mean you stop counting the cost to yourself; it means you do both, honestly.

“The strength to endure hardship and still live with love is itself a form of victory.”

- Daisaku Ikeda, The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, Part 1
