Wheel of Life

 

Balance.

This picture reminds me of the notion of the “wheel of life.” Each of the spokes represents a different part of our lives. These could include ( feel free to add you own ), the spiritual, financial, emotional, physical, recreational, social, psychological, mental aspects that most of us strive to balance. It is incredibly difficult and is an ever evolving process. More often than not, one or more of these things is going sideways. However , if you ever reach the stage ( normally later in life! ), when these things are somewhat harmonious, be extremely grateful.

I have been reluctant to put this out there but several people have asked me, so I’m coming clean. As we all know, the world has become very small and travel to all corners of the globe has become commonplace. Sometimes an opportunity presents itself at just the right time in your life when there is some semblance of the aforementioned balance!

I have been offered a chance to volunteer with an organization in India that works to promote gender equality and to help people overcome poverty . Part of my duties will be chronicling the lives of their people and writing about some of the projects that the organization is involved with. While I’m there, I hope to travel to other parts of India and make a side trip to Nepal and possibly Vietnam. I will continue to post  “Faces in the Crowd” on Thursday and I expect to have some very compelling stories.

And speaking of “Faces in the Crowd,” this week’s subject is a well known and much loved woman who has served her family, her church and her community with distinction for a long time. She is the epitome of positivity and is a bundle of energy.

I have several other FITC pieces in the works. Our community is oozing with interesting characters.

Have a wonderful week.
