Looking for Balance

It's amazing how much there is I want to say, and yet, the words aren't coming. Or maybe it's because my thoughts are so many faceted that there's no real common ground.

My brain has been split to encompass the guy in my life, my friends, school, church, work (or lack there of) and family. My time isn't my own, and I don't know if it ever will be again. That concept right there is hard for me to swallow. I don't mind sharing my time with others, its when I have to decide which equally important things get my time, and which one doesn't. It kills me!

For example, a friend is having a rough day and needs comfort and has given it to me in the past. There is also homework that needs to be done on a consistent basis because of my major. I'm also supposed to be nurturing a relationship. Then there are callings to fulfill, classes to attend and be prepared for, and a job. Chores and other things necessary for survival in the proximity of other people.

I know the answer is a schedule and sticking to it, as well as balance. But let me tell ya, finding balance is just as difficult as maintaining it!
