Dear Maharaja: 

All the glories to Sri Sri Radha Krishna
All the glories Srila Prabhupada
All the glories to you
Please accept my humble obeisances

Thanks for answer my letter, your answers have been very helpful.
Now I find myself in a different situation, my moods are changing constantly, when I'm doing service, chant, or I'm with devotees I feel very happy. Meanwhile there are situations that make me feel stress and anxiety. They are related to my job and the home maintenance.

I've been working at the same place more than two years, it became repetitive and boring, I work lots of hours and I come back home very exhausted. Having to pay the rent and bills stresses me because it's a big part of my salary. Always I'm going to have to deal with this kind of things. Sometimes I think about to change my job or home, but that isn't going to resolve it.
 
After to spend the weekend at the temple or with devotees is really hard to return to work on Monday, especially after Sunday Feast, Sunday became in my favorite day.

Thanks Maharaja for your mercy
To serve you
With love Bhaktin Carol

HpS - ASA -- Maybe you were an Egyptian Pharoh in your last life and you made lots of people work hard every day hauling enourmous stones into place for your pyramid, and now you have to pay for that.   Of course, maybe you were something else.

Pray for Krsna to engage us in His service.   Then whatever external situation presents itself we can basically accept it as the Lord's will. Of course He may be offering us the chance to change our situation also.  We push to improve things for our service but don't get violent and then depend on Krsna. So, many times we see obvious miracles and something happens. Other times we see that this strange situation is what He wants and we accept it.

If you are stuck in a booring job then there is the opportunity to think about whatevery you want to think about or sing whatever songs you want to sing, Memorize songs. Don't be too worried about the roof over your head or the food on your plate. Don't be negligent but put Sankirtan first!
