Balance is elusive when everything's changing.

And yet an equilibrium must always be found...

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

And so we keep searching for it, yes.

[only-pepper.livejournal.com]

It is so vital to both our physical bodies and our psychological minds to have it...

A never-ending search, unfortunately. Have you ever found a time when that balance is stable?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. More than just a time. I used to be quite good at it. It is only in the past year or so that my equilibrium has found itself thoroughly shaken.

[only-pepper.livejournal.com]

I can thoroughly understand that and might I say then, that how good for you that you are persevering, if you're still looking for equilibrium after it having been denied.

I'm Pepper, by the way.

Change is a constant though, and that doesn't mean balance so much as persistence.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Some change is, yes. Absolutely. It is not always so...drastic, however. Persistence is not a problem, at least for me. Refinding the center of things where I can approach change with equilibrium...well.

I used to be better at it.

[msattentionspan]

Damn, you sound like a few people I know... I'll skip over that and go right to the used to be better part of it.

So it's more of a get back in the saddle type deal I'm guessing?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Do I?

Something like that, yes. A need to reassess some things, see how they have been altered, accept it and move forward from there.

[msattentionspan]

Yeah pretty much just the whole way you are wording things. It's not a bad thing.

Moving on isn't always the easiest thing though, especially if you're having trouble with the balance?

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

It only seems that way. Balance will happen.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Hopefully sooner rather than later.

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

Everything has a time and a place, which is hardly comforting to you right now, I am sure.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

It is not so much comfort I seek as a way to sort through things, make them make sense.

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

If you wish to share anything with me, perhaps I may help.

You seem to be a smart man, so I think you will come to a solution.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

What is this balance thing you speak of?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

I have heard it is a mythical state of equilibrium wherein one is able to handle the things that come with grace and dignity.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

That exists? Really?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

So I've heard tell. I used to think I was living in it, but...

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

LIES! ALL OF IT!

[not_myfirstday]

What's changing?

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

Everything.

[not_myfirstday]

Yeah... so you said up there when you said 'everything's changing' I was sort of hoping for something more specific Mohinder.

[capableof-both.livejournal.com]

The world. Me. The people I know. The office. It's all in what seems to be an extreme state of flux.

[not_myfirstday]

You shouldn't use that word around Peter, he gets this weird twitchy look when you try to tell him that everything is changing.
