A lovely reminder that we are also part of nature and should treat ourselves as such, especially in a world that constantly wants us to be giving 100 (and then some... )
"In the living world, few things exist in a 50/50 equilibrium (or at 0/100 extremes). The roots of a tree extend deeper and wider than its canopy. The flow of a river is greater in the center than at the edges. The stability of an iceberg depends on the majority of its mass being beneath the surface."
Makes me think about my current overindulging on work. It’s so easy to claim that that’s contributing more or whatever other payoff we may perceive. I am liking the concept of giving until I’m mostly fall of giving all my second energy each day. And then taper off. As opposed to doing the 110% thing and feeling like shit.
