Balance

People need balance to rise above the rest, which they can gain only by understanding nature.

The water teaches us to be smooth in what we do and light heartens, air teaches us that any problem can be solved just by finding a different way to solve the problem, fire teaches us the need for anger or passion in life whereas Earth teaches us that any problem can be removed by being stubborn and facing it.

Each has its own values but we should take wisdom from all these places. It is important to draw wisdom from many different places, if you take it from only one place it becomes rigid and stale, understanding other elements, other people make you become whole.  This is what life is all about, taking wisdom from every place and using it to brighten the tunnel of your life. The tunnel of life may seem dark but if you keep moving, you are sure to go to a better place.

True balance cannot be gained by reading a few posts about it, you have to look inward and find it within you. Look inward and try to see why you are doing what you are doing? And when was the last time you were actually happy? You will find the answer.
