What is your main problem?

On edge, can't focus, papers due this week, presentation monday.... I think I'm in a mixed state: on edge and full of anxious energy but also sad and hopeless. Worst possible timing for this (although I guess there never really is a good time)

Per the last 2 posts:

1 - sometimes I think we need to just think about execution of the task and surviving the next challenge
2 - after the fact we can cultivate the ability to sift satisfaction maybe even joy if we work at it. It is possible to be miserable and under duress and yet still take the positive out of the experience

I don't want to get religious or preachy but at Galations 5: 22,23 it talks about the 9 fruits of the spirit. To me this tells me that those qualities are a gift and from within us per say. Which means things like love, joy, and peace and so on can be enjoyed despite our inner battle
