I mean, I get what people are striving for—some equal amount of time being spent in the various areas of their life: some in career, some in marriage, some in parenting, etc. Ironically, I have learned that the key to balance is not seeking balance. Instead, a balanced life is a result of achieving something else.

Broken Rainbow, an award-winning documentary, exam Broken Rainbow, an award-winning documentary, examines injustices that the government was forcing upon the Navajo nation during the 1980s. Linda Myers couldn't stand idly by and do nothing about this issue after watching it. It all started with creating an art piece to sell during the Park City Arts Festival, using the profit to send food to native elders living on the Navajo reservation. 

After visiting a Navajo reservation and a slew of other events, Linda was inspired to create the program Adopt-a-Native-Elder which now visits 13 different areas on the reservation. On a daily basis, volunteers get things ready for their giveaways. They come in and get different boxes together and put them on shelves that are designated by locations. Not only do they put together boxes of food, but they also put together boxes with medical supplies, a “grandma” and “grandpa” box, household boxes, and more.
