Balance

Balance is not letting anyone love you less than you love yourself. – Felipe, Eat Pray Love

Peace is so hard to find, even in the silence of the waves washing along the sandy shore of the beach when no one is nearby and the closest thing to company are the brown little beach birds that scamper across the rocks in pairs.

Life is a balancing act. Like night and day, partitioned by dawn and dusk.
Like the double suns, it feels almost like a dream, a fictional reality. If only it would end...
