A formidable balance

Another fun-filled and busy weekend ended and am still going like the energizer bunny. Since I had to read a chapter of a book tonight, I went to the gym downstairs and got on one of the exercise bikes. I became so totally engrossed in my reading that by the time I looked at the clock, I had spent 1 hour and 25 minutes riding and reading. Yes, my energy level is through the roof but I am also very contemplative in my approach to this mystery that we call life. I enjoy cultivating a calm mind and spirit along with nurturing my active and very physical self. Striking the balance between the two is a formidable challenge and one I relish daily.  As I explode with physical energy I also succumb very calmly to the beauty and enjoyment of inner peace and tranquility. Good night...
