The concept of balance is an odd anecdote between the fluid in our ears keeping us upright and the notion that moderation makes us better. Balance is staying upright in spite of how thin the beam is. Internal equilibrium is not about moderation, but how far the fluid can flow from one side to another before we tip. Some of us have great balance. Others don't know when the fluid is at its limit and they keep falling over. I posit the theory that the obsessives of this world are the reasons for the greatest breakthroughs. Moderation is the greatest killer of innovation. It is time to cut loose and go a little ADD/OCD on something! I'm knitting my eighth mitten and hat set and it is August.
Thanks to Brazen Careerist for the question on "work life balance" and Bruce Kneuer, a social media scientist, for getting me on this train of thought.
