Chris was a good husband, father and a good employee at the work. He got promotion into a nice position and good salary too. Because of his big salary, Chris planning to has a new house for his wife and son. But, in the time he has the house, stress is coming to him. He seem not enjoy his life again because his debt of the house and responsibilities to his family.
Why Chris cannot enjoy his life again? He has everything most people wanted. Good house, nice wife, and beautiful son. But WHY?
Chris lost his freedom. When he buys the house by pays the debt to financial company for 10 years, he felt he can't do anything again especially with his hobby. His heart was screaming "I NEED A BREAK AND BREATH".
What Chris need is a balance of life. Balance of life can be achieved by having a healthy life and healthy mind.
Healthy life
Balance of life is not talking how you to arrange your time or your needs. Balance of life is talking about how you control your life into a quality life. In Chris case, when he thinks he lost his usual habit on doing his hobby, then he is WRONG.
I truly not agreed if somebody have family, but still want to free as he was a single. Chris must change his habit and replace his hobby to balance his life. Maybe Chris can do fishing with his family in holiday time or Chris cans just walking at the garden with his family to enjoy the view.
Chris's hobby can be replaced by doing something good with this family. When Chris doesn't think about his hobby again, then the healthy life will balance his life into a quality life and receive a happy life with his family.
Healthy Mind
Healthy mind can make someone to balance their life. When Chris stress with his condition because can't doing his hobby, healthy mind should using by Chris to clear his head from hobby things. When the hobby things strikes, Chris should think others to make it disappeared.
You can achieve healthy mind by always think positive on every condition, always say Thank you to the Lord for his grace, and the most important knows our positions now and not compare it with our pass.
Balancing life is about how we can use this life into a quality life, so everyone around us feel happiness on us.
