It's so easy to keep falling back into that same trap -- even after we've managed to escape it a time or two! There's definitely something to be said for holding one another accountable in the ongoing quest for balance! So, Karen... What have you been doing or planning lately to give yourself a break from the rat race? What strides -- or even <i>baby steps</i> -- have you been making toward a more balanced, restful, peaceful life? Even if they haven't yet been translated into action, what thought-pattern transformations -- or paradigm shifts -- have been occurring for you lately that have begun preparing you for action? I'd love to help you celebrate your big -- or <i>little</i> -- successes! Your (first?) life-balance support group member, Jeanne Wonderful idea!

A friend asked last night if I had done anything fun and I stammered. I had to sadly admit that I had not planned any fun into my life lately, too bogged down with the shoulds! Not good!! Let's form a support group and help each other remember to balance our lives. :-) Jeanne, you said it! :-) It is much too easy to put it off.

I'm trying to learn to savor life's moments as much as I can...to pay more attention to the important people in my life...to allow myself the luxury of a little more rest and relaxation, a little more <i>sleep</i>, and a little more fun, instead of feeling as if I must be accomplishing something all the time. It's so incredibly liberating to be free of the constant <i>shoulds!</i> Thanks for a great reminder! Jeanne Karen,
