Monday Wisdom – 22 September 2025
✍️ Riaan M. Odendaal
Twice a year, the earth pauses —
day and night in equal measure.
Balance is not perfection.
It is the steady dance
between shadow and light,
work and rest,
holding on and letting go —
and sometimes, the grace of one person
who steadies the rhythm.
The soul, too, needs its equinox —
moments where the scattered pieces
are called back into harmony.
Not to erase the dark,
not to banish the light,
but to learn the rhythm of both.
True balance is not static.
It is movement that knows
when to lean,
when to rest,
when to rise again.
