It's All About Balance
Keep a balanced view: by keeping one foot in the practical world, and the other foot in cosmic awareness, carefully navigate your life maintaining balance in every aspect of your life. Find financial, emotional, career, physical, and spiritual balance. How does this work? Balance benefits all beings. For example, too much water in the form of a flood can be dangerously problematic. Not enough water in the form of a draught can be equally threatening. But water, when in harmonious balance, is wonderful and necessary for thriving happiness. Strike a balance in every area, and find true harmonious contentment in every moment.
