It was an ordinary day. Which for many people is a day filled with stress and worry. Does it have to be that way? Many people think that is the only way to eventual happiness. But why does it have to be that way? Life could and should be all about balance.......work hard, play hard and that sort of thing. But, when can you find time to relax?

I know...you say you just can't afford the time. Well, take time! Stop feeling overwhelmed with work! Watch some television or perhaps you can spend some time in your garden or maybe visit across the backyard fence with a neighbor. Rest of some sort should be built into your day.
