Waiting for Something to Bring Balance

Copyright 2017 by R.A. Robbins

“If you are waiting for something to bring balance to your life, you’ll be sourly disappointed because it will not happen. In fact, quite the opposite will occur. Whether you realize it or not, you are the very one who is setting the tone for lack of balance.”

Byron Pulsifer, The Hard Part Of Balance

A Culture that Doesn’t Promote Balance

“Our culture doesn’t always promote balance.

Instead, we want everything instantly,

and we are willing to pay a premium later.

We’re impatient.”

Beautifully Balanced and Coordinated

Copyright 2016 by R.A. Robbins

“Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes.

If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed.

Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as if beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds’ wings.”

― Jelaluddin Rumi , The Essential Rumi

Balance and Clarity of Mind

Copyright 2016 by R.A. Robbins

“One reason I practice meditation is to maintain my own balance and clarity of mind in the face of such huge challenges, and to be able to stay more or less on course through all the weather changes that, as a parent, I encounter day in and day out on this journey.”

Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn, Everyday Blessings 

We all strive for balance

Copyright 2015 by R.A. Robbins

“We all strive for balance, often moving to extremes to find ourselves somewhere in the middle where we can sustainably exist in optimal inspiration. Working toward balance takes a lot of ingredients. We need courage, reflection, attention, action, and a push-and-pull relationship between effort and relaxation.”
