Half full or half empty

Have I digressed or progressed?  I am sabbathing, hardly watch tv and June packs me a lunch.  Progress perhaps.  The list of people to pray for gets longer and longer.  My time gets shorter and shorter.  I read that it is not about wanting to sabbath but needing to sabbath, especially when you don't think you have the time.  That is when you need it the most.  Lord give me strength each and every day to live a life that is pleasing to you.  I have been going 100 mph at work since I got back.  Maybe time to take a breather and just step back and look at what I have done in just a few weeks.  Reassess and then adjust.  I love work, I love my home.  I just don't do anything else anymore except an occasional workout.  I don't watch tv anymore, I hear it on in the background as I stare into my laptop screen.  Balance and rhythm, balance and rhythm I keep telling myself.  Saying is one thing, living it out is another.  Well, this exercise because more and more crucial as I enter the busy holiday season.  The rule of life will get tested for sure at Christmas.  I am looking forward to the challenge.
