How does one get balance in there life?

This is a question I have been asking myself lately.  And the answer that keeps popping in to my head is, getting to know me again.  Because i think what we play and do when we are young children will define who we become in the future.

Now that is just my own opinion yours could be very different.  So thinking about what i did as a young girl, I loved to dance and sing, and i had a great imagination i love to write story's although my spelling was really bad.

Getting back on how to get balance in my life, i thought i would share with this blog how i'm going to get balance in my life.  Although its not writing story's at least i'm writing, and maybe one day i will write a story, but lets just take one step at a time.

Singing and dancing are maybe left in the past, only because i sing and dance around the house all the time.  Can i just say by doing that my kids see me and just roll there eyes and say oh mum what are you doing......Kids today don't like good music...

So writing this blog i will make it a goal to write into once a week and see how that goes.  I do have to look at here and now and what i would like to learn how to do.  Which is learning photography, i love to take photos might be something i look into in the next couple of weeks.

Ok let me leave you  with this quote:

Mid 40s

Now that i'm well into my 40's its all about balance for me.
How can I become more balanced in my life that would not only help me but help my family as well.

Getting older has always been a big deal to me, it has only been in the last couple of years that I have come to terms with the fact I can't chance the fact that i am getting older, its just a part of life. I can either let it get to me, or just go with the flow.

Thats is where balance comes in to play for me. I have let it go. Now its time to move forward,
And make some big life changes.. And I didn't know how to do that, because I was trying to be a good mum. Well they are grown now and don't need me as much as they did.  And so now I'm thinking I need some balance in my life, and still be there for my kids when they need me.
I'm thinking if I do that I will feel much better and would be able to give more of me, I think its much healthier too.  So where do I begin. ?.......

Now this is the start of a new chapter in my life.

A lot of people say life begins at 40.  Well my life has always focus on my children, making sure they got ready for school, taking them to work, out to party's, sleep overs, well you get the point.  Friends have always said to me you need to take some out, out for you.  To me that sounded selfish, what mother take time out for herself, just didn't make any sense to me.  The penny has finally drop and i can see to have balance a mother need some time out just for her.

So i end today with this quote:
