Most of us are out of balance and suffering for it. We’re either too pragmatic or too romantic.
The pragmatist never stops to smell the roses. “What’s the use? Just get the job done, move onward and upward. Winners never quit and quitters never win.”

Thanks Carolyne for a stimulating topic. I think life is all about the smell of roses (meaning? feelings? pleasure?). The rest of it (pragmatisim) should not exceed maintaining what is necessary (health? shelter? food?) to enable us to smell the rose.
Unfortunately the prevailing materialistic culture has no time for roses !
