Preposterousness

So much to say...

...but nothing that needs to be said. And yet, I go on talking...often failing to stop and listen. This is not a me that I know very well, and I need to get to know him better because I know it's part of who I need to be as I move forward. The talking guy that is, not the non-listening guy. I always was a listener, never a talker. I don't want to go back to where I was, but equally, I don't want to go to a new place that isn't where it should be. That age-old conundrum raises its head... Balance. Communication is just one aspect of life that I'm finding is changing rapidly, and where I need to be more conscious of keeping myself in check. Not just me, but others helping me - I'm certainly no island. Diane tells me of a great analogy from her Bible College where they were taught to always keep the Holy Spirit and the written Word of God "in tension with each other". In other words, in balance. 'Cause no-one should be in the position of either of the poor vegetables in that see-saw pic down there...which is what we call a teeter-totter guys. Do you struggle with balance? If so (and really, if you're honest, who doesn't) what do you do to combat that struggle?
