The Spring and Fall Equinoxes are when Day and Night are equal, and the day is balanced rather than tipped toward more or less of daylight or darkness. They are a reminder that there is a cycle of life, and there are times we have it easier and times we have it harder than others.
We have had a lot of discussion about work-life balance in recent months, and I am reminded by the upcoming Equinox that true balance comes rarely. Our focus is usually directed at one or more specific areas in our lives, not evenly at all six at any given time.
Our lives are full of peaks and valleys, not mesas or plateaus. Those come too, but as resting places, not permanent residences.
Whether we spend more time climbing peaks or sliding into the valleys depends on our choices in life. Sometimes life throws us a curveball and knocks us into the valleys, however we can choose to continue the downward slide, or we can choose to grab that branch, break our fall, and being our climb to the peak once more.
So where are you in life - sliding down in a valley or climbing toward that peak?
Until next time, Namaste!
