Everything Requires Balance.  Feasting and fasting.  Work and leisure.  Conflict and rest.  Dark and Light.  The Flow of the Seasons.  Where Balance is absent, there is Discord.

 

Balance does not require all or nothing.  Too much sun or rain is Catastrophic.  Though Extremes may be Useful, such as when Implementing Change, they are but a Standard from which to Measure.

 

Balance is not Equal.  Even Time shifts gradually to Accommodate the sun and the moon.  Sometimes We Give More than We Receive because We Have More of what someone Else Needs.  In Our Love We should Strive to tip the scale in favor of the Other.

 

Balance does not mean harmony.  Because Humans Require Conflict in order to Evolve, Our Peace must be Disrupted.  Be it Our piece of a materialistic World, or Our Peace of Mind,  to Achieve a Balance within the Changes of Human Existence We must have clashes that We may Acknowledge Our Selves.

 

Balance is not the Same for All.  Our Needs are as Individualized as Our Beings.  The sun may scorch the skin of Some, while Others seek out its Healing.  A regular diet of information may Provide Knowledge making a Goal Obtainable, or it may cut off Creativity.

 

It is in Our Expectations of the Definition of what it Means to Be Balanced, that We incur our greatest Tension.  Be in the Moment of the Current State, both Yours and Others.  Accept that Balance is in a Continuous State of Flux, Giving Us the Opportunity to Guide Our Futures to Balance our Pasts.
