BALANCE

I come from a culture where being in balance is thought to be a primary goal.  However, I’ve always thought it’s equally important to decide with whom or with what one wishes to be in balance.

This model of a dove and a raven was created to become a hologram that appeared on the jacket of a thriller novel I wrote, several years ago, when holograms were quite new

The idea was to depict the delicate balance between good and evil. 

Recently noticing this creation as we enter our seasonal time of equal light and darkness, I wondered what would happen if the rod were extended, so the dove could move farther away from the influence of the raven without disrupting the balance. 

The rod, itself, then became a consideration in terms of its composition, so as to allow for that.

Then, of course, there would be the point at which the dove would have to substitute its own weight before flying away, freely, leaving an undisturbed (outwitted?) raven on its own. 

So, the answer would require substitution, as well as quick and delicate moves. 

I don’t suggest it would be easy.  But this is the dilemma I leave with you to ponder at our seasonal time of balance. *

 First, decide what it is that you wish to pursue, reverse or abandon.

Then, be sure to be quick and delicate in your actions, even leaving behind a substitution, so the change can occur before any opposition notices. 

You’ll find it worth the effort, because the choice of where you’ll next land will be, if not precisely, then, at least, significantly closer to where you’re supposed to be.

 Of course…  Repeat, when necessary.  😊
