Disclaimer: I’m a broke ass upper fifties guy who is single, has gone to almost every church denomination you know, live in a nursing home, formerly homeless.
But I’m a magician. Without a solid house and home. No license. Several things affecting my health as a “normal” person.
So … how and why?
No Meditation or scarce scheduled and met meditations. No training. No daily rituals met.
Disorders or diseases:. Guilliam Beree Syndrome. Schizophrenia. To name a few.
Yet … my basic needs are met through ACA, SSDI, and state aid.
Do I want more? Yes, but I’m … complicated.
Do churches help? Sometimes. Not much different than with magic.
Isn’t that why we’re all here?
