A BALANCING ACT

Torn between two lives.

Between what you want

And what others want of you.

A tough balancing act.

Full of uncertainty.

How do you walk the fine line?

Can you please everyone?

No. 

You can’t.

You must please yourself first.

Balance carefully.

And balance wisely.

A BALANCING ACT

Torn between two lives.
What you want.
And what others want of you.
A tough balancing act.
Full of uncertainty.
How to keep balance?
How to walk the fine line?
Do you cut yourself into half
like in the tale of Solomon?
Can you please everyone?
No. You can’t.
You must please yourself first.
Then you can solve the rest of
the world’s problems.
Balance carefully.
And balance wisely.

ANCHORS IN THE WIND

ponderation:

Postcard from Tulum by Todd Wall

Life hangs in the balance.
Calm blue waters.
Pretty pink sand.
Palm trees waving in the breeze.
But life hangs in the balance.
One big burst of wind and
the palm trees will go flying.
Lifted from their roots,
from their anchor to the ground.
One small breeze.
One incidental shift in the wind.
And all could be gone.
The more precarious,
the more precious life becomes.

ONE ACT OF KINDNESS

One act of kindness is worth so much more.
It gives back to a world that has given us life.
It provides a reason for the existence of mankind.
A reason for us to have been given life and a spot
in the immense universe.

BALANCING ACT

Life is a balancing act.
Some people do it better than others.

PERFECT HARMONY

WE CAN CREATE BEAUTY.
WE CAN UNITE FORM AND MOVEMENT
AND ATTAIN PERFECT HARMONY.
WE JUST HAVE TO WANT IT ENOUGH.

THE FOREST

The bird lives in the forest, where he finds food and water.
The forest flourishes from the sun and water.
The creatures of the forest live in harmony with each other.
The food chain determines who will be the hunter and who will be the prey.
Nature has created the perfect template for harmony.
We could use such a template to lead people back onto the right path of sharing and giving, instead of only taking.

PERFECT HARMONY

The two cats nestled together, white around black, depict the harmony of Yin and Yang.
Nature has a way of balancing its creations to achieve the ultimate harmony.
We can learn from nature to surround ourselves with beauty and balance, instead of constant noise, and confusion.
Life doesn’t have to be filled with pain and unhappiness. We have to search for the right balance in our lives that will bring us greater peace and feelings of accomplishment.

VERY UNUSUAL!
