Wouldn't it be nice if everyone strived for balance? This is something I've been working on for years, and I've finally achieved it. I think that creating a balanced life is a choice, and as with any choice, it takes truckloads of discipline to do those things - everyday - that support your choice to live a balanced life. I agree with you that being balanced begins with taking a look at oneself and feeding those parts that have been hungry for attention. If you're full inside, chances are your outer life will also be full. Great post. Looking forward to reading more. Hello there.
