Privileges

What Privileges (and I mean headstarts/ advantages) do you have? Do you know?

Some of mine are below. I do not take them for granted. Life would be harder if I didn't have them.

A garden.

My own private home.

Walking with ease.

Working pattern that suits me (also a necessity but also privilege).

Not actively having to care for someone all the time.

I'm white.

Ability to self care.

Accessible Education (mostly, I have/had barriers to learning too).

Access to finance.

Access to health care.

Mouth talking (life is easier).

Physically able bodied when well.

What have I missed as my point in this post. I have an unease but am ok with that and am encouraging respectful feedback here, and in private.

Pic, my right foot, wet from being in the paddling pool, now leant on sofa as I rest, feeling tired. Sofa is teal, blanking next to me, pastel patterns.
