Meditation is extremely useful and very likely is the key to everything else.
Last week as I tried to sleep one night, I could hear the disconcerting sound of a large spider's legs crawling over the sticky notes on the wall on the far side of the room. The spider disappeared behind a mirror so I left him be, but the next morning I couldn't find him. I found him that evening in another corner and moved the big horrible bastard outside.
My barber only takes cash which has been fine because there's an ATM 20 yards from the door (they used to take card but I guess after the pandy they don't want to pay tax). Unluckily though, the ATM is closing next week for good, meaning there's no way to get cash handy near-by. And they hardly expect me to carry cash in this day and age, that would be absolute madness.
As I said, meditation is very good. It helps you to see that underneath all the stress and anxiety and pain, life is good and worthwhile and beautiful in its own strange way. Mediation is very good.
