~ Thomas Merton
Balance for me has been about avoiding drama, working on my relationships (especially with my higher power). Not drinking & going to meetings. Speaking up when something pisses me off - without losing my temper. Giving more than is asked of me and looking after my own needs. The last 5 years has given me the opportunity to share my journey with 2 step-kids and having kids in my life has granted me a wonderful and fresh perspective. I like moments of solitude but have learned to shun isolation. I probably should be more physically active and I should eat better but I feel that I've found emotional and spiritual balance in my life and I'm truly grateful for that. Perfect balance isn't possible but progress towards a more balanced life is a worthwhile daily pursuit.
