Happiness Resources: Balance
Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony. ~ Thomas Merton
Tonight a little twirl around the web to find you all some resources on one of my favorite subjects, balance. One of the things that I frequently see people do is lose balance in their life. This typically comes in the form of working too much, or at least losing the understanding that work is not your whole life, that other things are more important than work. Is this you? Well if you think you can’t take a vacation, or when you are home or on vacation if you can’t unplug from work you may fall into this category. It’s not easy the first you truly unplug on vacation or at home, but unless you’re a medical professional or someone similar no one dies if you don’t answer the phone, but remember my friends you only get one shot at life, one shot to hang with your kids at the age they are at right now, so wind down, unplug and have a happy day my friends ~ Rev Kane
