When I was in 9th grade my English teacher (why my English teacher? but it was him) asked us to draw or think of a triangle, with the lengths representing how much our lives were made of physical, mental and spiritual components.

I asked what to do if I didn't even have a triangle. I thought my mental component was so much longer that the physical and spiritual sides could never come in and touch one another; I had a long line with a little flipper on each end. He gently suggested that my life might be a little out of balance, and I nodded and shrugged because I knew that, but couldn't imagine anything except living all in my head.

Now my physical side is probably as long as my mental side, and I like it that way. Got me a long, skinny pointy wedge. I still don't have much for spirituality but at least it's a triangle now. I'm almost tempted to write my old English teacher and tell him. :)

What's your triangle like?
