THE NEED TO STOP

"Balance is the aim of all living creatures: it is our home." 
~ Rolf Gates ~

Sometimes we can have so much going on at once that it is dizzying and makes us feel flustered and overwhelmed. This is the time to stop and breathe, maybe take a walk. Multi-tasking in an ongoing way depletes us spiritually and wears us out for better things. We need a steady, prioritized, one-thing-at-a-time approach. We need common sense, and we won't find it in a ball of confusion. To find it, we have to step back.

When I am feeling overwhelmed by everything, I stop and take a break.
