Balance.. A Meme..

Ok, so I generally never participate in these crazy things, but always one trying to be a good sport, I’ll play along here this afternoon…

I was tagged by Star, so here it goes…

1. How do you achieve balance in your life?

I have no idea what balance is. Wait!! I just walked on a semi-solid line across my kitchen without toppling over, so I guess I can conclude I have good balance, right?

2. What is your biggest challenge in balancing your life?

Oh.. ok, I get it now.. I was so totally taking the word “balance” completely differently.:] Well, I’ve found that it’s hard to balance if you place both legs in the same pantleg when getting dressed, so I try hard not to do this.


3. What are your priorities?

Where is my camera……?

4. Have your priorities changed over time and why?

Ok, fine, I’ll try to answer this one with a certain degree of seriousness.. Yes, my priorities have changed over time in a few different ways. One of the biggest, money. Being raised in a fairly well-off home where none of us were ever left wanting for anything, a great deal of importance, though not mentioned often verbally, was placed on money. Over the years, money (and all things material), have come to mean less and less to me.

5. What advice can you share to help all of us balance our lives?

I think I’m the last person on God’s green earth that should be giving advice on this, or any other subject….

Stumble it!

    Hi, Ryan. Thanks for playing along. Your answers were hilarious. I promise not to tag you anymore. haha

    I was grasping for known readers to tag, can’t tag lurkers!

    Thanks for participating in the meme. Your light-heared answers remind us we need to keep humor as a priority in our lives!

    Ryan, try putting tights on, now that is a hard task to stay balanced.
    Hang on, you probably have tried that!lol!
    Number 4 was very well said.

    Hey Star! Of course, it was my pleasure to play along! If you ever get into a pinch, feel free to tag me..

    Lillie, Yes, that is honestly a priority of mine, never take myself too seriously, and to just enjoy life.

    Claire, you are SO MEAN…

    You are honestly going to make everyone question my sexuality…

    FOR THE RECORD: I, Ryan Velting, have NEVER worn, and never will wear any form of womens undergarments, including but not limited to the following: Brassier, panties, tights, knickers, stockings, bloomers, corset, or any other women’s unmentionables….

    Cheeky bugger…

    Something about protesting too much? hehe

    You sure have the undergarment lingo down pat!

    I’m embarrassed to say, I looked up some of the terms at Dictionary.com. :)

  • Claire // Apr 19, 2007 at 5:34 am
