I have been practicing for 3 years now and I am very uncertain , at times , about just exactly what this practice brings to me and what I bring to it.
My financial situation has deteriorated but I am better able to cope with it. Overall I feel happier and more content .My health is good . My love love life has remained static i.e I don't have one .I'm dealing with work in a more holistic approach.But I still have a lot of trouble understanding many of the Buddhist concepts and still wonder why Buddhists are just as messed up as every body else.
