Balance does not come naturally to any working mother, I can assure you that.
Like any working mother, I have to balance and manage my time very carefully. My children and husband come first, of course, then my work.
Interacting with other people does not come naturally to me; it is a strain and requires effort, and since it does not come naturally I feel like I am not really myself when I make that effort. I feel fairly comfortable with my family, but even with them I sometimes feel the strain of not being alone.
I want to assure you that working in transition period is an ungrateful job for any honest government.
I mean I think that when you've got a big brain, when you find yourself planted in a world with a brain big enough to understand quite a lot of what you see around you, but not everything, you naturally fall to thinking about the deep mysteries. Where do we come from? Where does the world come from? Where does the universe come from?
If poetry does not come as naturally as leaves to a tree, then it better not come at all.
Our Lord’s making of a disciple is supernatural. He does not build on any natural capacity of ours at all. God does not ask us to do the things that are naturally easy for us- He only asks us to do the things that we are perfectly fit to do through His grace, and that is where the cross we must bear will always come.
That's a journey I've been on for many years. I mean, being a working mother, realizing that I have to make and find my balance.
Like every working mother, there's guilt involved in deciding how you're going to balance family and work.
Showy displays of love don't come naturally to everyone. They don't come naturally to me. They also come with a risk: a risk of rejection, being made to feel silly, or making yourself into a spectacle.
I can assure you that during my tenure as his employee, Bob Ney was the hardest working man in Ohio and Washington. I can further assure you the work that he did and the decisions he made were done with integrity and the highest regard for his office and those he served.
For me, what matters is who are you working with, what you are working on, and when all that fits naturally, I let it go. Then, I don't care if it is bold or if it needs me to be uninhibited. I just want the role that I am playing to come out the way it should.
It's about maintaining balance. Plan better, be organised. I chose to be a working wife and mother. Why should I compromise on either?
I think, as a working mother, what is more challenging for me is that I get to balance both work and home and prioritise my kid's life.
Working with my mother is unlike working with any other director.
To be a mother is a beautiful thing, but to be able to assume the role for a child in need is nothing less than amazing. I believe that any woman who takes on the role of a mother, whether it be naturally or through foster care or adoption, should be held in the highest regard.
I tend to project my father figure onto any director that I'm working with, or mother, if I'm working with a female, or it can be confused.
