Hi all

I wonder if you could share how you find a balance in your practice?

I'm a householder with wife, kids, cats, dogs, fish, etc. I have a normal day job working for an insurance company. Simple stuff.

As time goes on, my interest in Dhamma has grown and would like to spend more time with monks and nuns at a fairly local monastery in Chithurst, West Sussex. However, lay life takes precedence at the moment, how can I simply stay with this desire to spend time with like minded people (as I'm not in regular contact with a local Sangha), without clinging?

At the moment I feel as though I'm just at a certain life stage of raising kids and maybe I'll have the opportunity to deepen my practice in the future, at some point. Tricky, when you realise you might die today
