Maybe it is because the problem of so and so having 2 pairs of shorts but a dozen shirts has reared it's head until packing time. And, I almost always only pack 5 days worth of clothes. It's enough for travel and to not have to do laundry every day.Barefoot Hippie Girlhttp://www.barefoothippiegirl.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987013294670234572.post-48597812388220199872014-07-14T09:38:47.422-04:002014-07-14T09:38:47.422-04:00Living large does produce stress, but I've nev...Living large does produce stress, but I've never figured out how to do "all the fun stuff" without it happening at least part of the time. Maybe it's in the joy of living that the pressure doesn't seem too high a price to pay. I just heard a lecturer who pointed out that optimum growth comes not from a comfortable lifestyle, but from a lifestyle that pushes the limits WITHOUT pushing you over your personal limit. I think our emotional growth is similar to our physical growth: Strength comes from hard exercise. I'm glad you embrace life with both arms open wide!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
