A Balanced Heart

In difficult times, how do you start,
keeping an open and balanced heart?
You might be told that there's no such thing,
but learning how is the lesson it brings.

It doesn't come easy; this is for sure,
where heartache hides, you feel there's no cure.
But if you stop thinking to perceive what you feel,
the answers await you, which are very real.

Although you dislike what you have to do,
be humble, be calm and be gracious too,
For in this life you stay here to learn,
how to choose wisely and how to discern.

And when you feel lost or feel out of sync,
step back to breathe, then just don't think.
Take time to relax; let judgements go,
then wisdom inside you will start to flow.

But then you must listen to the voice within,
for the songs and messages that it brings.
By then you will feel a shift in the scale,
balance will come; it happens without fail.

You will know without ever being told,
serenity and peace will first take hold.
Abundance of joy with love is then cast,
and a balanced heart, forever will last.
