Within and Without

It seems to me, at this moment, although I could be mistaken, that a balance between the struggle to improve the outward circumstances of my situation and my inner responses to my situation is something to strive for.  It's seems to me, at this moment, a better use of my limited energy would be to understand my various responses to my situation and how those responses affect me and, perhaps, my situation.
