Reconciling Relationships

Not in the sense of peace verses conflict but in the sense of time - spent at work verses at home - a conflict that probably never will end.

Nolan Harmon identifies that "there are time when an emergency at home demands every thought of the father/husband, there are times when an emergency at the office becomes so imperative that it takes precedence over all home duties.  This will be admitted.  What is not so easily remembered, however, is that a leader's relationship to their family is as high and as sacred as that to their work."  So sometimes work gets precedence and sometimes family.

What we have is an interlocking of responsibilities.

Nolan Harmon calls for this - "the better the father, the better the leader; the better the guide for the others, the better the guide for one's own children."
