In therapy, people often talk about the challenge of juggling different things in their lives, including their needs with others’ needs.
As I’m juggling my urge to travel with other people’s priorities, I am now resolving to travel more on my own, letting go of any fear about that.
What juggling do you see in my images for today?
I’ve been juggling these images to make sure that World Juggling Day would appear here!
Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “juggling.”
Happy World Juggling Day and thanks to all who are doing their best juggling, including YOU!
Yep, cat people are ignored (I say as I wonder how to easily get the cat off my lap so I can get another cup of coffee, realizing I may be here until lunch…)
I love juggling the needs of my cats with my needs, Trent!
All the cats and dogs I’ve happily shared my life with had their own personalities, Ann.
And, enjoy every bit of travel you add to your life!
We’ll keep juggling our lives with others’, my friend!
life is a circus filled with balancing, juggling, jumping, tightrope walking, and riding atop ponies at times. but so important that we find ourselves safely on the ground after each experience.
I love the way you juggle words and ideas, my friend!
Enrico Rastelli (1896-1931) is considered the greatest juggler who ever lived. He juggled 10 balls in his act. That was the record number of balls juggled. Alexander Koblikov has duplicated that feat. Amazing.
I thought of you when I found that video!
Today I am going to have to try to juggle … wait a minute. I’m an old lady with my errands for the week all done. I’ve penciled in several things I *want* to do today, but whenever I start feeling anxious about them I remember. I’m the only one telling me what to do. (sound of balls bouncing around on the kitchen floor)
Good job juggling, Barbara!
I went to see Penn and Teller live. Penn came out juggling flaming batons and everyone applauded. Then he broke the ends of some wine bottles and juggled those. The response was a little more muted. He then explained that the flaming batons were balanced and meant to be juggled but the bottles were harder because they were so irregular, and really more impressive.
Sometimes I feel like we’re juggling flaming broken bottles.
At least we’re juggling together, Chris.
I like the framing of the one with the figure, and all of them are well framed. As for juggling, for me is much like multitasking.
I like your comments, Maria!
I love the idea of using juggling as a metaphor to describe how we balance our needs with others’ needs. It’s a powerful visual of how we can make sure we are still taking care of ourselves. It’s great that you’ve been able to capture that in the images you’ve chosen for today. I’m sure many people can relate to the feeling of juggling. Thank you for sharing this and celebrating World Juggling Day with us!
I love that you commented and thank you so much, Olivia!
I love this post and appreciate the reminder to take the time to do things that we love and that make us happy. It’s important to take time for ourselves and taking a journey on our own is a great way to do that. The images you shared are beautiful and capture the feeling of juggling the different aspects of our lives. It’s amazing to see how much can be done with a few simple items like balls or clubs.
