LIFE



Life is about balance
We have joy and sorrow
There are highs and lows
As we give to others in helping them
We must not neglect to feed ourselves




We must first put our own mask on
Before attempting to help someone else
Sometimes we are the one needing
To put a mask on someone else
Life

At other times we may need
Someone to put the mask on us
You have helped a half dozen
People get their masks on
And now you need help but there’s no one

You need someone to put your mask on for you
But if no one is willing to help, what can you do
You would be extremely frustrated
Watching everyone else calmly seated
Breathing while you gasp for air because no one helped you

Think about how you feel
When you’re constantly giving
For a while, you feel rewarded because
You have the joy of helping someone else
But after a while you get back in tune with your own needs

What about me? You may ask
Imbalances in our lives can create frustration
As you give and give yourself
It’s important to refuel by spending time
With people who can pour into you

When you make a conscious decision
To have balance in your life
You systematically eliminate the potential
For frustrating and misery
Life
