Imbalance

I can never get all of my life in order at once. I get one thing lined out, and there in the background is some other problem, just lurking---like its waiting for a weak spot to open up so it can attack.

Does anyone else struggle with this?  I know I hear mothers say this, but since I am not one, I am not sure I am justified in feeling like this. Then again, I do not know who I think I have to justify it to--it is not like I need permission. I keep running across things like this that catch my attention, because they ring so true

Right now, I am making so many changes in my life---and I am impatient, so it is hard for me to slow it down and change one thing at a time, like is recommended by so many. Plus, many of these changes are not up to me--I am just the one standing by picking up the pieces and figuring out how to put the remainder of my world back together.  And frankly, it pisses me off that I cannot balance things so I can relax and just enjoy life for a while.  Is there ever a point when that happens?  Give me some hope here!
