"Balance" just feels like more work. I liked that.<br /><br />I did read Glennon's post. I liked it, and I'm happy for her. Of course I will be missing her posts! But, I understand the pressure she is feeling and that she needs to take some time to rest and just "be". She has been through a crazy, difficult year afterall.<br /><br />Maybe you should do that (Of course I will miss you too!), but you need to do what you need to do. Writing is your therapy, as it is mine. As soon as it becomes stressful or "work" you know something needs adjusting. Maybe just journal and enjoy the summer and your kids and relax and then come back to the blogging world feeling refreshed.<br />I think you need to make the decision that you feel most at peace with.<br />But know that I will miss my Canadian friend. <3Lyndsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10176456754098878761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341369945738181093.post-32898722262905236122013-07-20T12:35:35.687-07:002013-07-20T12:35:35.687-07:00""balance" isn't something to g...""balance" isn't something to get and then check off your list. It's a daily choice to put aside ego and choose peace."<br /><br />I like this part the most. You choose how to feel each day when you wake up. We just need to take the time to be mindful and purposeful in our thinking as the thoughts control the emotions. <br /><br />did you read Glennon today? What do you think of her choice? I think she is wise and brave and I am tempted to join her. Maybe just write for myself...not on here...not for an audience. <br /><br />It's funny because you and I were just talking about all of this. <br /><br />I have never liked the word "balance"...it makes me feel like you are always in peril ...like on a tightrope....<br /><br />Have a great weekend...be still...listen...you will hear your heart speak to you. <br /><br />xoxo<br /><br />Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07845509553730947239noreply@blogger.com
