		<description>It&#039;s dancing that I do but grace that I lack.
Balance is key.  I&#039;m striving toward it.  A never ending quest for balance.  I&#039;m a very slow learner apparently.

I&#039;ve heard of Zumba... You make it sound scary! :P

&lt;b&gt;Oz Girl-&lt;/b&gt;
I&#039;m with you 100%! I think it&#039;s a balance we&#039;re all looking for.

&lt;b&gt;Pseudo-&lt;/b&gt;
OY sounds rough. Thanks so much for this wonderful post! I hope it serves as (self-)inspiration for you as much as it has for all of us.</description>

		<description>aw what a great guest entry and fitting for kristan&#039;s blog! i also started blogging to help get back into creativity and so far it&#039;s working. i daydream ideas on how it could get past that into realm of business but i haven&#039;t taken that step (leap?) yet.

		<description>it&#039;s hard to find the right balance.  I too need to get up from my computer and reboot for a few hours. Pardon the pun.

		<description>Today is a day where I need to constantly remind myself there is a dance going on to the seeming grind of errands.  Took the newly 17 year old to change his provisional liscence to a real one, and to open up a checking account for him since he has his first job.  Each of these places had lines, waits, and swallowed large chunks of time.  The boy was hungry and irritable. Plus a post office run with a 20 minute line.  I know some day when I look back on today and the boy moving into these big adult spaces will be huge.  But as of now, I&#039;m just sucker punched.  Maybe if I watch the video a couple more times....

		<description>Pseudo - you know I respect you and your opinion immensely.

After this wonderful post + a Brandon montage, I think I might now be a stalker.

Excellent. Put my vote in the &quot;dancer&quot; column.

		<description>I am on a blog jag right now.  I like to figure everything out about a certain topic...then  I usually move on.

I am curious if I move on from blogging to another interest??

I try to dance.  And prefer to dance all the time.

		<description>Pseudo, a wonderful post.  I may not be a creative writer, or have the dilemmas you have in this arena.  But I think we all struggle to balance our lives with our jobs and home, and then try to balance work at home with recreation time.

I agree with Beth, in a way we are both human and dancers, trying to strike a delicate and even balance between all the elements in our lives.  In today&#039;s fast-paced world, not an easy task by any means.
