YOur comments were awesome. <br /><br />I finally learned lesson #1 after I sold my flower shop.<br /><br />Point # 2, my childhood was so helter skelter that I thought I needed control.

But I think you need the manic side to off set the calm... it's all about balance... <br /><br />The things that I have learned; <br /><br />1.your work cannot rule your life, even if you make your work your life. It just won't bring you joy that life brings. <br /><br />2.you can't expect to have a pin point schedule all the time. Sometimes, you have to deal with the unscheduled, and at times these moments will define your character. Don't be affraid, because you are who you need to be to handle it. <br /><br />3. Trust yourself, and trust in yourself. If your gut is telling you 'NO', listen. <br /><br />4. look in the mirror with love and respect. You deserve it. <br /><br />Simple things that waver from time and again... but these are the thoughts that make me regain my balance.Xmichrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640935280209026338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429266377364863842.post-90519205805517022492011-01-28T06:47:25.299-06:002011-01-28T06:47:25.299-06:00Pam good post.

I also know that it is a state of mind and spirit - many tragic thins happen but at the same time there is always many wonderful things happening too - the key is to give time and honor to both. SO balance is about having the where-with-all to feel happy about what is good in your life even when bad things. happen. ALl the ingredients to be balanced are within you - just tap your own natural resources, gifts and wisdom.<br />Love you<br />Gail<br />peace......Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337675996256691215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429266377364863842.post-70347085787698099342011-01-27T00:37:52.507-06:002011-01-27T00:37:52.507-06:00I think many of us ladies have a problem with bala...I think many of us ladies have a problem with balance. Often I think we just try to be all things to all the people in our lives. It works for a little while and then, after awhile we find ourselves out of balance, out of control, and out of our minds! I'm most aquainted with the "out of our minds" part lol.<br /><br />Problem is a lot of people do a great job of acting as if they have their act all together. Personally, I'm not a very good actor. Something tells me you may not be either.<br /><br />So this is a great goal for the new year Pam. Hold fast to your faith and cling to the only one that can bring peace and balance to our lives when there is none--and that is Jesus!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />DebraDebrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140046660664590895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429266377364863842.post-23654058079829624342011-01-27T00:08:15.553-06:002011-01-27T00:08:15.553-06:00I struggle always for balance, often between loss ...I struggle always for balance, often between loss and hope at this time of my life...
