Happiness is the one everyone likes to refer to when talking about the importance of balance, right? I mean, that goes for everything in our own little worlds. "You need to find a work/life balance." "You need to stop working so hard and do things you enjoy." "You need to get off your lazy butt and go find a job." If it was as easy as balancing work and life, then I think we'd have a lot less depression in our society. But no, it goes way, way deeper than that.
