Priorities

Changed PrioritiesAs we are all aware, life consists of a series of problems or challenges as we prefer to call them. Sometimes they appear in sequence, one at a time, but sometimes they all catch the same bus and arrive en mass. This is when priorities have to kick in.

Today has been such a day, bucket loads of challenges arrived and it’s just not possible to deal with them all at once, so they have to be prioritised. Whilst it is very nice that our new website has lots of traffic, sales are up, and generally it has been very well received, it does generate a lot of work too.

But that’s the side of life that pays the bills, keeps the roof over our head and allows us to feed and clothe ourselves, but what about the more spiritual aspects? Well, although I chant about pretty much everything, having a job is really rather important. Without a job, there’s no money. Without money life gets very messy, very quickly, as I know to my own misfortune.

Even though my practice is the hub of my life, the spindle around which everything else revolves, sometimes it has to happen in the background. Being so busy is a blessing and a bore all at the same time, but this time work has to be the top priority.
