tippy canoe life

my life as of late has been woefully out of balance.  everything is out of whack.  my exercise and diet, my home, my spirituality.  everything is a big mess. someone is shaking my snow-globe world and i appear to be drowning.

i think that sometimes when my life is whacked out, putting one thing straight helps the other things line up and balance as well.  the most powerful aligner for me personally, is my spirituality so  i decided to start there.  set one thing right and see what happens.  my scripture study as of late has been so poor and i miss it.  i miss the peace and strength it brings into my life.  i miss the expansion of my mind and my heart that comes from losing myself in God's word.  i miss the way he talks just to me through the words.  i miss the comfort and the perspective.  so this is my self challenge.  it's nothing big.  it's just to get myself steadily and consistently back into daily scripture study.  i am going to read the book of mormon in 67 days starting from where i am now, and go full circle.  that's about 8 pages a day.  and that's all i'm going to focus on.  i'm doing this one change and we'll see after 67 days how and if my other wildly skewed life bits have come more into balance.

That's a interesting perspective- to fix one thing and the others will fall into place. I'm gonna try it.

I like your plan. I'm sad to hear you've felt all out of balance. I'm sure you'll be able to stabilize everything. I might turn to your plan myself when I feel like everything's out of control. (I feel that way often).

Finding balance is a lifelong lesson for all of us. It's ok if you get off balance, what matters the most is your effort to be accountable and do better, which are doing and that is much more important. I support you no matter what or whatnot, bud.
