First, I realized that I have a hundred and twenty pound lap dog.
Second, I realized the importance of balance in my life.
You see, I love CBS Sunday Morning. I have for years... I'm not really sure if it was my Grandparents or my parents that I watched it with as a kid, but I know that my parents still watch it to this day. The reason I love the show is that it's the only news program during the week that's presented with a smile. Charles Osgood has the voice and charisma that brings a calm peace to the news. Also, the "real" news (I use that term very loosely) about world affairs and top stories is limited to a brief 60 seconds of the 90 minute program. After that, you learn about everything from the anniversary of the Charles Manson Family conviction to Bill Geist visiting a salt and pepper museum. You get commentary from people like Ben Stein who actually share an opinion, think it through, and remind you that it's just an opinion.For me, sitting on Sunday morning with my dog on my lap and watching the lighter side of the world is really important. My schedule over the last year hasn't allowed me to watch the show, but now I have weekends off and am again enjoying a smile on Sunday morning.
For me, it brings balance to my life. It helps level out the hectic side of work, and the negative that you deal with in daily life. Over my next few posts we'll take a look at some ways that you can bring balance back in to your life, and hopefully bring a smile to your day!
