🎁 活在禮物中 🎁
經過好幾個月，我終於在今天上完了之前跟大家推薦過的線上課程「Living in The Gift」（活在禮物中）！
如果你也跟我一樣，覺得這個世界不應該是弱肉強食、不是你死就是我活；
如果你也看見了這個世界其實有足夠的資源支持每一個生命，而多數人所體驗到的匱乏事實上是人為體制的造作；
如果你也看見了以錢至上的社會，是如何破壞了人與人之間的連結；
如果你也感受到其實我們的生命本身就是一個禮物，我們來到地球上也有自己獨特的貢獻……那我想你應該會和這個課程產生很大的共鳴！
上完課程，讓我得以檢視自己在生活中哪些層面仍然受到舊有體制控制，又有哪些地方已經活在禮物經濟當中。
舉例來說，我從2012年開始，無論住哪，都會把自己的家開放給沙發客短住；我們在越南經營的個人成長學校並沒有所謂的固定薪，而是看團隊裡的成員各自的需求以及付出的努力，大家圍成一圈協調分配薪水；另外，我和男友去年在歐洲住了五個月，大部分時間都是靠朋友慷慨提供住處，甚至在瑞士時是住在「朋友的女友的媽媽」家😂。
當你接受了別人的禮物，很自然也會想要給予更多人。世界可以是不一樣的面貌，就從你我生活中做起。謝謝課程主持人Charles Eisenstein以及他的團隊，給了我機會深化個人轉化過程。

p.s. 請不要以為我如此大推是因為有廣告費～～😂單純只是因為我覺得這麼好的東西應該讓更多人知道。想當然，這個課程也是以禮物的形式提供給大家的，個人自己決定該付多少學費是對你來說最公平、最可行的。

After a few months, I finally finished taking the online course I've introduced to you before - Living in The Gift.
If you also believe that this world is not a zero-sum game; if you also sense that most of the scarcity we experience is artificial, and the world is inherently abundant; if you also see how our current money system ruins relationships; if you also feel that life is a gift and we all have our unique contributions...I believe you'll resonate a lot with the course.
While taking the course, I was able to examine different aspects of my life through the lens of gift.
For example, I've been offering my home to CouchSurfers since 2012 wherever I am in the world; we didn't have a fixed salary while running leadership school Knowmads Hanoi - instead, we sat in a circle and distributed money based on the contributions and needs of each of the core team members; my partner and I were able to live in Europe for five months last year mostly because our friends generously offered their homes to us.
When you receive a gift, it's natural for you to want to give back to more people, and that's what I'm doing by sharing about the course - it's a wonderful gift that has come to me, and I only hope more people would be able to experience the shift I've experienced. Thank you Charles Eisenstein and the team for creating the opportunity for deeper transformation.
