This was such a soul-stirring read, thank you so much for the invite 🙏🏽.

I’ve learned that judgment without balance is like trying to carry a heavy pot of soup with one hand; it’s only a matter of time before something spills. Your reflections reminded me of the many moments I had to choose not just what was right for me, but what was right for those around me, too.

Balance, to me, is that silent voice that asks, “But what if this affects more than just you?” And in those moments of pause, we find wisdom.

Like you beautifully pointed out, it’s not always about numbers or quick wins, it’s about impact, about people, about legacy.

I especially connected with your line about coming out of “me, my, and mine.” That line held me for a moment. Because in a world that constantly pulls us toward self-preservation, choosing balance is an act of quiet courage.

Again, thank you for this reminder. May we all continue to grow into people whose decisions carry not just weight, but kindness, clarity, and responsibility.
