Weigh the Costs and Benefits

QueenSiStar Anita Baker sings “the scales are sometimes unbalanced. And you bear the weight of all that has to be” in Giving You the Best That I Got. I’m feeling the weight of all that has to be this dayclean QueenSiS. I’ve had a string of long days in a string of long days and I feel like the balance is out of my favor for sure.

I’m learning that It is okay and valuable to assess my happiness and contentment with my portion of workload and relationships on a regular basis. And, it is useful if I refrain from passing judgement on any of those categories by looking at one snapshot in time. In this moment, my partner, family member, home, job or business may seem as though it is costing me more than I benefit. But then, if I honestly consider the full length of the relationship or experience, I usually calculate that my return on investment is high. Give thanks that the scales balance in the long run. #ROI
