I believe that to know balance you have to loose balance from time to time. To define and feel happiness you need to know what the opposite feels like. We strive for a balanced life; be it family-me time balance, saving-consumption balance or work-life balance. And when we get too little me time, consume more than we can afford and work longer hours than there is in a day, we may feel uneasy, restless or even unhappy. Or unbalanced. So then we look for a way to balance ourselves again in the constant search for a better life, the life where all our aspirations and hopes are fulfilled. Where there is a never-ending flow of happiness and love. The life that doesn’t exist.
The One Million Dollar question is how to appreciate the unbalances in between the balances. A small saying in search for the answer:
To loose balance in love is to live balance in life.
May be to be balanced in one area you need to be unbalanced in another. So rather than lookin for the unbalances, look for the balances... May be it's as simple as that.
