Finding Balance

Sometimes I lose a little of my self, as if life has become somewhat unbalanced. It happens on those occasions when the noise of the world seems to be on high volume, and the waves of conflict pound upon the shore.

Fortunately, it doesn’t take much to quiet the mind and to rediscover my balance. Sometimes all it takes is a change of scenery. Sometimes it helps if I sit quietly and watch the world walk by. Oftentimes an act of selfless giving provides the immediate gift of what is needed.

And then there are those times when all that is required is a long-distance phone call to my parents. To hear their voices and their laughter, somehow it magically makes the world right.

What helps you to regain your inner balance?
