make it through?

 
 
My generation started in the 1970'ies as non  profit  environmental centers 
that raised their money by recycling.   Being counter culture types, living off 
of the land and gong organic was the way  of life.  We had food co-op's and 
co-op day care centers.   Being  communal was cool and when the oil boycott 
caught the country without oil  and energy prices were rising at 10% a year.  A 
lot of us thought we were  right.   It was the concept of family and community 
that created all  the good stuff that makes you go on.

I've heard from people who have been working towards recycling and  reuse 
efforts full time for whatever reason (personal drive, madness,  
motivation, dedication) and some who haven't had it pay them for thier  
efforts for years and years until it finally can..

How did (or do)  you do it?  (And please don't just tell me "I'm frugal" or 
"I grow my  own food off of compost" -- these sorts of things are clear.)

Does that  make sense?  I've been working on my project for many years now 
and am  feeling stressed. :(
