no such thing as balance

April 18, 2013 by Alanna 5 Comments

This is how I feel most days. Last week a friend asked me how I do it all and I laughed it off as I usually do.

I am speechless after yesterday but this is good to remember even though it can't change what happened     "This is a giant planet and we're lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence.
