Theory of Balance

A being and a being
residing in a circle
revolving around
One another

Each carry burdens
of self care
When one doesn't care
the other must care more
the weight increases
to the point
they are bowed down

Carrying the burden
must be equal to both
or the equation
does not add up
and someone breaks

Take your share
of self care
for I refuse to
carry it all!

    What a good mother you are.

    Life soes get tackey at times. Many forget the load and place much on others, after all if you only have 5 lbs, moer and onother has 6 lbs,, the bigger one can carry 10 lbs I can get by just going along, and picking my stuff up later till it is time to go. What pride you have in your familey to teach them values so early in life. Bless You- I believe God already has and still watching over you. Very nice read with a lesson...mac

    Yes. But the one who perceives the need sometimes must go first...

  • This was really something inspiring! Great talent you have and I enjoyed it so much!

  • I am reminded of the libran scales. I am glad your son understands what you mean by this and agrees to do his fair share - I love it, well done.

  • The wisdom in mutual embrace of sharing in the caring....help me, help me and I will help you, help you. Awesome!

    Such lively wisdom in simple words! Yes, indeed, the balance is the key, and the only way to keep the circle from breaking. Lovely! Lita
