Balance

Balance

All we want is some balance in our lives! It seems that we can struggle every day in order to find or obtain the balance we so badly crave. But gaining balance is not something we achieve, rather it's a state of mind that we choose to either be in or not. Balance comes when you let go of trying to be perfect. Balance comes when you realize that you can only do your best any given day and that is enough. Balance comes when you stop letting everything and everyone else control who you are and the decisions that you make. When you finally decided that balance is what you truly want, then you will find it.
