Don't Forget to Balance

With all of the ideas and plans I have mounded up in my mind there is little room for much else. Which is not a good thing, for we need balance in every aspect of life, in order to really live. Looking over my notes of organization that I made up yesterday reminded me of the simplicity of balance a schedule of sorts creates. Each area of concern gets addressed with nothing being forgotten or slighted. It is also comforting to me to work within the boundaries created. I believe if we can come to an agreement about how to handle some of the issues we are faced with daily. Then the daily workings of this farm will be easier challenges to face. I have been guilty of being too focused at times. Pushing myself beyond endurance and frustrating others in the process. A no win situation for sure.

My thoughts are and history has proved it before, that if everything is set into working order. It will in turn relieve the stress we feel and open the doors to easier living. The problem is that we often don't see the living right under our noses. It is like putting off gratification to a day that may never come. If this is true, then we have missed out on the pleasure it had to offer us in the first place. Each day only comes by once, it's delights vanish with the passing of it. Life truly is short and most often not appreciated by the majority of people. There needs to be a change in my life, as I am sure there is in yours. All work can make you dull if not sick. There needs to be a balance found that enables us to play through our days too. Looking for the joy in the moment, regardless of the task before us. The unknown in our days can often causes us to fret, when the One who holds it, already knows all about it.
