The key is to find balance.


True, love doesn't give you the 1k calories, it is the motivation to make that 1k happen. We really aren't trained to "be as the lilies of the field," unfortunately. This is not an easy world. Each of us has a particular orientation to how easy it is or not. Some of that is karmic, and some of that is training. But do you find that you do in fact have all you need? Maybe not what you might "want," or "prefer," but what you need?

I am an artist. I live teetering on the edge of disaster all the time. It's not a comfortable place. There is always money anxiety going on. However, when I look at the truth of my path, I have always been able to have what I need. I work at learning to have faith in that! It will be there!
