Emily's Beauty in Balance

Beautifully Crafted and Perfectly Balanced ... Emily's words and her creations too...

It has become a guiding principle for me to strive for balance in all areas and in all endeavors. Through experiences both pleasant and trying I have come to realize that in my life, there is no quality more desirable, more honorable, more promising, or more worthy of my effort than the attainment of balance and the beauty therein.

I believe that in balance we find alignment, proportion and harmony. Balance embodies symmetry, stability, equality and poise. It gives us steadfastness, self control, self possession and focus. It is evenness, justice, equanimity and accord.

Balance is where we acclimate, calibrate, integrate and adapt. It is a regulation, a rectification or a minor adjustment; a slight compensation to make things stand on their own. It is the willingness to change; to alter our stance to suit the mechanics of the moment. The proper arrangement which is always changing and always challenging us to conform.

In balance is attunement, neutrality and redemption; balance is a place where everything is settled, everything is tallied, and everything is totaled. In balance we find the sum and the square, when all is accounted for. In the balance of ourselves we find our personal inventory; a statement of self, where we align with---and listen to---the center.

It is an instrument in tune, a beautiful face, the way life grows, Ying and Yang, day and night, darkness and light.
