Sally

Sometimes I'm not sure what it is exactly that I enjoy about writing. It's more like the "ahh" feeling you have after scratching a deep itch. And then it feels so good that you scratch a little more. Sometimes I dig and scratch until I notice, too late, I'm bleeding (code for exhaustion). And I suppose that's what I'm trying to figure out.

Balance.

How can I balance a nursing career, family, friends, church, keep my writing from itching and my body from bleeding?

Of course, if somebody PAID me to scratch, that would automatically prevent bleeding.

Right?

Okay. Maybe not.

Maybe life is all about finding balance no matter what your itches are.

What do you think?

I think I better find a new analogy. I'm breaking out in hives!
