Losing job, being in an uncertain situation

What is the best attitude we can have when we are sitting with you in meditation / Darshan?

Mother, why are you crying during meditation?
Mother: I do not cry. During my whole live I have only cried four times, when a person very close to me died, like Mr. Reddy. Sometimes water comes through my eyes, it is more a reaction of the body, like when one looks into a bright light. There is no emotion, no suffering.

I struggle to be full vegetarian. My body feels better when I eat some meat occasionally but my mind doesn’t.
