IMPOSSIBLE BALANCE ACT

Life is an impossible balance act! It can crash down on you anytime. Here are a few possible reasons for it: Illness, war, astroid, nuclear apocalypse, bankruptcy, losing a loved one, breaking up, being canceled, war, a deadly virus, accident, being born there and not there, and the list goes on. A work like the “Impossible Balance Act” allows me to swallow this bitter life pill a little easier, take a step back, and look at it humorously. And I hope billions of people can do that too, as long as none of the above are in their lives.  Currently, however, it seems more and more humor disappears and loses its power as a buffer zone for dealing with complex situations. With that, interactions between people lose their lubrication, become stiff, and become less flexible, and we all know what that results in – a narrow view of complex situations and one reason more life could crash down on us.
