Thanks for your reply.
Indeed ... the pressures of modern living can get in the way of our practice and thus our progress.
Our practice should always be appropriate to our circumstances.
A monk has more chance to practice than the working, debt-laden mother of 4 children, for example.
We are best to accept where we are and work with what time/resources we have to improve our situation.
If we truly recognise the value of the spiritual path for then we will always find the time to focus on it.
In my experience, time spent in practice/meditation amply repays us with increased energy, focus and productivity the rest of the time.
Some wise man or other said ... "Meditate for 20 minutes a day. Unless you do not have time, in which case meditate for an hour"
The man who thinks only of money is, sadly, missing the point of his life.
Sure, we need money (as things stand anyway).
But it is best seen as a means to an end, rather than the only thing there is.
Not always easy, I know :)
