the cow goes moo, and the heinz bottle goes splat

ok so i was reading amy's blog tonight and in it she talks about balance...balance is a funny thing, like many things in my life i seem to really struggle with it. i struggle with being able to focus my attention, i struggle with my in ability to have any kind of patience, i struggle with perfectionism, and yes i also struggle with balance. i struggle with walking without triping or falling, as well as staying balanced emotionally/physically and not overdoing any one thing. for example, i have a very hard time finding balance in using my days off productively vs. recooperating. i either pour myself into my work and loose my sense of self and sense of who i am or i pull away from work and loose my sense of accomplishment and contribution...in many ways it almost seems as if its a no win situation, trying to keep things balanced lately hasnt been working because im just too exhausted...balance when its right should feel effortless...i know cause having danced for aproximately 22 years i am aware that when you do find your balance once you've got it you can stay there with little to no effort for how ever long you want. seeking balance is painful at times, annoying, and downright frustrating, but well worth the annoyance for the end result and the result can produce beautiful things. so balance on! just be careful to not end up like caley's heinz 57 bottle!
