Balance the act

There are many things in life I look back on and wish I would have done or would have done differently. Not in necessarily a sad way - but rather just reflecting on why certain dreams faded and others became a reality.

My life is brought to you by decisions made based on information on hand at the time. Snap decisions were made. And then other times I took so long to make a decision the opportunity simply passed. 

I guess I write this so perhaps you can learn from me. You always think you have plenty of time to do whatever it is that you want to do. When in reality the clock is ticking. The parts that move so freely allowing you the chance to do whatever it is that you want to do become rusty with caution and apprehension, debt and responsibility. 

So, finish the degree, chase the job, build the life that you want. Do not wait until everything is perfect because it never will be. And do not move with disregard to yourself or the consequences of your actions because once you are moving sometimes inertia takes over and you have no choice. 

Seek balance. You'll find it behind the bottle of Tylenol, on top of the bills, next to the list. Oh, and when you do find it, it will be because you were quiet enough to recognize it.
