Perfect consistent balance is an illusion in any aspect of human life. It is only possible in precise sciences like physics. Whether it be a relationship, our own emotions, work – life balance or anything else that involves an emotional quotient, we can never achieve an exact middleground permanently.

Having said that, the search for achieving that balance is also another equally true fact of life. A never-ending one. Just a fleeting moment when the scales level and in the next moment, they will tip over again. So why try at all?

Because the eternal quest to find that state of equilibrium, no matter how transient, is what gives us a goal, purpose and hope. And what interest would life have without those?
