The Great Balancing Act

I often joke about how my biggest weakness is that I love what I do. I love helping people! Whether struggling from addiction, human rights issues, health concerns or trauma. I am the advocate for it all. I have devoted all my free-time to all of the above over the years and now I work in EMS full time. I always fear complacentcy which keeps me striving to learn and or test my abilities.

Not to sounds completely weird and void of substance, I do like other thing.. really I am the person who wants to truly do “all the things”. I love running, nature, climbing, yoga, art, coffee, museums, writing, photography, weight training. Great conversation or debates. Really I do not know a whole lot of things I don’t like. There is where my weakness starts to shine…

QS_41f0ac7b0cb14c6da4b283fb83e3e3ec_resize I have tried to become a more well rounded person but, I have always ventured solo and with little success balancing my need to help and wanting to do “all the things”.

Don’t get me wrong, I have travelled this country and many others from top to bottom! I have run many marathons and hiked and climbed some beautiful territories but, I am usually in these places working . I am never truly mentally or physically checked out .. which as you all can imagine becomes a crash and burn scenario pretty quick. You will sometimes cry over that proverbial spilt almond beverage.

This morning the almond milk tipped over and I melted. I was trying to find First

Responders for a site, pack for 3 weeks in Dease Lake for medic work and handle severe health issues with a family member. Clearly it was a build up of lack of sleep, pushing my mind and body too hard and coming down with a cold that is the true culprit #mancold

All that being said .. well written, it may be the reminder I needed. I am hard lining on the backside of 30 and I need to listen to my body. I need to truly find a way gain the balance so I can in fact do “all the things” with some amazing people.

I realize this can’t be an all or nothing venture. balance takes time and practice. As a wise Jewish man once said “step with care and great tact and remember that life is a great balancing act”
