Being over Doing
"Babies begin life by being. As we reached adulthood, the emphasis shifts to doing (accomplishments). Then, as we grow older and our energy wanes, we refocus on being." (quote from Dr William H Thomas)I suppose I have not reached the stage of "being" yet, cos I am still focusing on "doing"; on accomplishments and career success. However, at what cost?
Which is more important? Accomplishing job success or "being" a mother?
"Being" a mother must be the toughest job on earth, and most of the time, it doesn't even PAY to be one! More than half the time, you are hated by all those whom you are mother to!
Guess we mother must be suckers for pain and torture!
