Finding Balance: Simone Weil and the Seven Sacraments

By Fred G. Garry

People need balance. Quite often our lives feel out of balance. Most people seek balance in prioritizing their life or simplifying their commitments. And there is the most frequently asked question of balance: how do I balance work and family? Yet, none of these consider what we are balancing. Simone Weil gave a daring answer to this when she reimagined our life together around the "needs of the soul." In this work we will consider not only her list of needs, but also the needs of the soul that can be found in the seven ancient sacraments. Ultimately, we will seek to listen to the way our needs are met in the pursuing of balanced opposites.
