Priorities

I must be nuts, because I find myself feeling guilty for taking a vacation this week.  It's funny that I never felt guilty during the past 35 years of unending, nose to the grindstone work for not taking off.  My manager convinced me many times not to take off because my people really needed my leadership in the field.  Looking back I believe it would have been better leadership if I had demonstrated what it meant to live a balanced life. God first, family second, work third.  These are the priorities I believe in.  Living this out in real life is a challenge worth pursuing if you want to live a healthy life.
