Healthy

I’ve really become healthy here. I’d love to stay here but I fear we may be running into financial difficulties. I'm not abandoning ship though.

It seemed too good to be true, but I’m also seeing how the peace and routine gave me opportunity to understand my own need for both the dreams we each keep alive and the financial viability we need to sustain as well. It's a universal thing. We've run into some difficulties and were not safe enough to thoroughly protect ourselves. But it's a universal malady, 'money runs out.' In part it's a talk the talk and walk the walk balance to live within your means. I know I’m very lucky, but my eyes are opening to I’m not the only one who has experienced financial drunkenness and temptation. In my past I've lost everything. It’s hard.

I’m not saying we’ve lost the battle here at the monastery , we’re challenged and fighting forward. It’s made me think about realities and that they are universal and I feel healthy enough to do so and I am grateful:)
