More From Nora Roberts

What i learned, more than anything, was that you can't have it all balanced perfectly at any one time. when i was young, it was much more balanced toward work. when i had my children, it was much more balanced toward love and family, and i didn't get a lot of work done. so you can't ask of it to be perfectly balanced at any time, but your hope is, before you die, you've somehow had each of those spheres come to life. that's probably more important than success in any one of those spheres alone.
