The Top 3

A few weeks ago I sent out a mass email to women across Canada on a quest to find the top 3 issues facing women today. It was very interesting reading the responses. The top 3 are:

1. Balance which includes managing time and setting priorities. If lives are out of balance, stress, loneliness, fatigue and other issues result.

2. Self-esteem issues fell into 2nd place. Learning to accept ourselves as God made us to be or seeing ourselves as God sees us is challenging for many.

3. Relationships followed in third. Is it possible to have authentic relationships in our world? How do we deal with offenses and conflict?

Other issues that surfaced were purpose (which I really think affects the first 2 issues); health; finances; family; gender discrimination; materialism; abuse; career

Thanks to all who contributed VERY well thought out responses. When I get time, I'm planning on compiling the actual comments and that document will be available to any who would like it.
