Ying & Yang

Ying & yang

PB & J

Masculine & feminine

Each complements the other. Each represents two halves of a whole. Each is made better by the presence of the others. 

I wonder how this applies to motherhood?

Motherhood is a lot of doing; in fact, the to-do list often seems endless. And the support out there is all about how to get those things done more efficiently. Buy groceries online. Order birthday gifts on Amazon. All amazing inventions, by the way.

But what is the complement to all these to dos? 

Being.

If creating or writing music is the doing, music itself is the being. One cannot exist without the other. What if we approach motherhood with the same attention and love to the being as the doing?
