Balance

I adventured out into the Garden of the Gods with some friends from college during our Girls Trip. We came across this marvel of sandstone called “Balanced Rock.” It stands 35 feet tall, weighing 140 million pounds and yet it balances on a a very small connecting base. This boggled my mind. How could this giant rock balance its enormous weight on such a small base area? It got me thinking about the enormous weight each of us carries through our daily lives, trying to find a way to balance it all. There are times when balance seems inconceivable but just like this rock, it is possible to defy the odds to find your own form of balance.
