Day 9:
Balance

AHHH! Hopefully that grabbed your attention (I know it didn't, but please play along). Today is the final article (really blog at this point) of the 2022 Spring Break Project! It's felt like a drag but I'm glad to have gone through with it with you, my ghosts. You see, I call you ghosts because readers of this site don't actually exist (or maybe they do and I'm being mean to them). Today is also a reminder that I have to go back to school tomorrow... 

Now you may be asking what is the final article about. Well, it's about balance, an insanely important aspect of a healthy life. Everybody, including me and you, needs to find balance within themselves, their work and free time, and quite literally every other aspect. The word balance, by denotation and its origins in Late Latin and Old French, is about even distribution and stability.  

'So what do you want me to do?', you may ask. I want you to find balance in your life. That means having to experiment, fail, and explore, all of which take time. Trust me, if nobody else, that it leads to a more peaceful, healthier situation that will improve your quality of life. There's nothing to be gained by constantly looking at the news and reading politics, it's probably going to piss you off and make you more depressed. Also, the 'grind' is not sustainable, it's only able to work if you have an end goal in mind. However, all of this is just my two cents, spend them as you will. 

Congratulations, you made it to the end of the project this year. I'm glad you read it and I'm hoping that I won't cringe when I look back on these. Here's a fake cookie that you can make real if you try!
