"It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. The man who fears God will avoid all extremes." Eccl 7:18
So my question is: how do you stay in the middle? When you find yourself too far on one side of the street...how far do you go before you start hitting the other side? What is "balance"? It is certainly something I strive for. But I also seek adventure and variety and new things. For example. I'm thinking about piercing my ears. I would really like to. It would give me a whole new genre to shop for and a new way to accessories. But. Let's say I do that, and then 6 months later I get bored and I want to try something else new. Where do you stop? Or are there really always new acceptable good things to experience and try?
Thoughts?

Balance is a very hard thing to do. I mean, to be perfectly balanced means to be constantly changing and shifting because our life is constantly doing the same.
Although you may get bored, I think you know yourself and know your limits. I mean, if i thought that piercing your ears will lead to piercing your naval then to tattoos and such, well...I don't know if i'd necessarily encourage it, but you wouldn't, you won't, and i'm, hereby, encouraging!!!

Go for it! I love my earrings. You can constantly change them. You buy all kinds of new kinds when you get bored with them! :-)
