RE: Achieving Balance

in #life6 years ago

Beautiful Piece @chbartist, you have captured it all well.

I remembered the story of an uncle that was all out for money at the expense of his family, his excuse was he was making the money for the wife, after several years, he has made enough and ready to enjoy time with his family, the wife welcomed him with the divorce papers, all plea to the lady landed on deaf hears.

He is enjoying his money all alone with his wife and kids not wanting to see him ever again.

We shouldn't chase one at the expense of the other.

That is sad but so true. We must recognize the value in the things we do have and appreciate it and not chase for more. More often than not we find that the things we thought we wanted doesn't really make us happy in the end.
