Balancing Act

There is a man that I see nearly every day running in the park. He does chin-ups, acrobatics, martial arts; and then he walks on a fence. He balances across it, step by careful step, and stops half way every time.

Consider your life linearly. Between the time that you begin and the time that you finish, you will rest. You will see things all in their order, that one thing leads to another, that there is only one way across. Successes immediately follow failures, confidence follows doubt.

Take a moment to rest, but keep your balance, and don't stay long. You're one step away from something good.
