Balancing Act

Time always runs out before I accomplish all the things I want to.

I believe that there is a season for all things, so we don't need to do everything at once, or feel guilty about not doing something for a while. So, when its time to study, I study. And when its time to attend a different event everyday of the week, I do that.

So much easier in theory than in practice! And here at the end of the school year, we cannot ignore the choices we made, because they determine where we end up. Some of us are wishing we had done more reading over the course of the semester. Some of us are wishing we had paid more attention to our friends, or wishing we had put a little more into organizing that open mic/town hall/protest because things might have turned out differently if we had.

Is it possible to find balance? As student organizers can we really be students and organizers and friends without having one of those roles suffer? And which do we let suffer? We all make different choices.

All I know is I'M TIRED.
