Seeking balance in work/home. Where do we turn?

We devote so much time to our jobs and careers for the interest of moving our companies forward. Which, in turn mean we add our own value in hopes that the company sees us as assets. We work longer hours for the same pay (which, if you quantify it, means that we are receiving diminished returns) just to secure our jobs. However, when the company’s bottom line is threatened, where does it turn to save cost?

While we devote our extra time to work, we usually neglect our families and justify the move as a means of moving up in the company. Wives, Husbands, Children & pets alike get the shaft and are asked to deal with it. However, bad blood is festering at home for the interest is keeping the money rolling in. Some may argue that not enough money is rolling in but I digress. Once the paycheck is cashed, where does that put you and your loved-ones?

Now that the economy is tanking (with some sign of bouncing back) some companies are forced to lay-off or down size. We receive our paychecks and layoff notice and we go home to loving arms of our family members. How do they feel know that your boss has kicked you to the curb after they have kicked you to the curb for their career?

Does our new job include repairing the relationships with our family members? When do we began to repair our broken promises at home?

Trial and error in the land of love

To participate in the game of love takes the desire to win, the humility to lose, the drive to push on and the understanding to know when to say when. Timing; who knows when the right or when the time is right. Do I push on or step off? Can I love you for a season, or do I love you for a life time. Am I Mr/Mrs. right or just right now?

Which have you cashed lately?

Self check, payroll check, reality check. Which have you cashed lately and is its meaning to you?
