harmonious balance

The only thing I love more than being affected, is affecting others.
It comes down to sharing our stories, our gifts, our blessings and our challenges.
Listening to others, learning and growing.
Doing your best and then simply letting go.

peace & God bless

permalink Sunday Morning - “Balance”
Good morning. The good news: I got the message out. The bad: I was sick all weekend. I saw this on FB and really liked it. To me life is truly about balance and I thought this was a cool way to look at it :-) Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. They are WORK, FAMILY, HEALTH, FRIENDS and SPIRIT. And you need to keep all of these in the air. You will soon understand that WORK is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls; FAMILY, HEALTH, FRIENDS and SPIRIT are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will become irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for it. Work efficiently during office hours and leave on time. Give the required time to your family and friends and have proper rest. “Value has a value only if its value is valued.” - author unknown All I would add to make this complete is that the Spirit ball be the Spiritual ball. Make time for God, family, health and friends :-)  peace & God blesstjd
