She began writing a very personal column for and about people trying to \"balance\" their lives, but hundreds of columns later, she noticed that she had not heard from a single person who had everything under control. Then she realized: Nobody can do it because it simply can't be done. \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eLife's Work\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of modern motherhood, where true happiness is often reached when you finally give up and give in.
