Why is it that there’s always something out of balance. If it’s not work life then it’s health or money. When they are all broken then it feels hopeless

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago

I'm guilty of this kind of thinking too. Been recently starting to realize the balance isnt how things feel to us, its our ability to "ride the waves" so to speak, and you can find balance wherever you look even if you may not like how it feels.

Not sure I fully believe that myself just yet, but the more I explore it the more it seems like there might be something to it.

Oh man I hear you. Good health, finances in order, work bearable. Pick two.

I’m perfectly balanced. All three suck equally! πŸ˜€
