balancing act

z7

~ A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your step as you walk the tightrope of life. ~
William Arthur Ward

Day 5 of the circus brings a tightrope of sorts... an impromptu balance beam. A place to find inner quiet, courage... to build confidence and coordination... to be silly and dramatic!

All you need:
- 2x4 between 8 and 10 feet long
- two sturdy chairs
- parasols and pretty skirts are optional


Words to live by: Get up on that tightrope. Don't look down. Find your balance. Know when to hold someone's hand... and when to let go.
