Wait, What...Balance

As parents and really as people we strive to create some semblance of a balance in our lives.  Balance as a worker, balance as a partner, balance as a parent, and of course balance as an individual.  In talking to many of my parent friends we find ourselves so overwhelmed to make sure our household stays in order and our children are provided for.  How do we find that balance.  Keeping our minds and bodies and our souls in check so that our children and our circles know that we are ok.  As a mom and someone who has struggled with depression and anxiety with a tad bit of a type AAA personality and ADHD, I am always on the move.  If I am sitting I have to be doing something.  I am still breastfeeding so proper medication is not an option so I have to create balance somehow.  I smile to the outside world, but I am constantly struggling on the inside.  
Balance?  What is it really?  Do I have to sacrifice some creature comforts to achieve this well being?  Do I have to compromise some of my drive to be balanced?  So many questions and yet they will remain unanswered.  I alone have to make the decision.  A conscious decision to be ok at what I am doing at this current time.  A decision that I may just be an ok parent, teacher, and partner for a little bit and that is ok.  My therapist asked me if I have ever not exceeded or gone above and beyond in the roles that I play and I quickly responded in a sheepish manner, No.  In my bio I even state that.  Here is to trying to be ok at being ok.  To find happiness and "balance" in this very unbalanced world I happen to live in!
