"Be yourself. Life is precious as it is. All the elements for your happiness are already here. There is no need to run, strive, search, or struggle. Just be."

Thich Nhat Hanh, The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching

Couldn't have come at a better time, especially after being hard and down on myself. Still, next career isn't going to fall into my lap, but at least I know to just breathe, be kind to myself, & keep strolling along, forward.

I find I have a conflict between what my spirituality tells me and what having to pay for things tells me.

@TheZorse

I understand this. It's a struggle for me, too. For me, I can only figure that I need to stay in the now, keep coming back to the now, to my breathing, without, hopefully, getting ahead of myself in breathless panic trying to survive because the rest of the world requires money.

@forestfern

That sounds very familiar. I hope you're able to find the right balance, and a job that only enhances your well-being. 😊

@TheZorse

Thank you for your kind words. Let us both hope for the right balance in our lives.

Cheers!
