[QUOTE=Lorien;121991]Thanks for the replies so far everyone.
I understand the need to prepare, and I am doing as much as possible. I do meditate and try to maintain a positive outlook on life as much as is possible these days.
However, I'm sure there are others in situations such as mine. I don't have a lot of money to stock up on food supplies, or anything to barter with. I don't have land that I can garden on or any natural water sources near by. I have bills and debt(due to medical issues) that require me to work my ass off.

I can totally relate to your situation and have very little to stock up or barter either. After watching the last couple PC conferences I decided to do what I could and start assembling emergency supplies piece by piece, I was able to pull together enough to get by for a couple days...but needed a much sturdier backpack, the kind that costs $50. Living in LA I don't have a good coat.
The next day I walked into the Goodwill store and found a killer backpack for $7.99 and a Lands End goose down jacket for $9.99! A couple days later my neighbor gave me two big box's of Nutri-System food, so I pulled the food I thought I might be able to stomach if I was in a pinch and every time I go to the store I pick up a couple things to add to the supplies. Now I have a couple weeks work of food and a fairly well supplied emergency kit.
It's funny how once you make your mind up to do something, the Universe jumps in and backs up your efforts with considerable assistance - if you just pay attention and your grateful for the help. You're obviously doing the work by meditating, so keep throwing your good energy out there and visualizing with good intent and you'll get all the support you need from the intelligent universe, it's always there backing us up with loving support if it's for our Higher good.
Don't let the lack of money fool you, we're moving in a time when our creative ability are intensifying and if we believe in our on power to create, or manifest then it's becoming much easier to create what we need much quicker than before. Don't feed into the lack mentality...
I know, it's hard when your so broke you can't pay attention...but just remember we are always where we're meant to be and that our needs will always fulfilled.
