 Life’s Balance: Learning to Live with the Tilt

I was watching Murder on the Orient Express when a line struck me deeply:

"The scale of justice cannot always be evenly weighed. I must learn for once to live with the imbalance."

It lingered in my mind, but I didn’t quite know why.

A few days later, I was at a small shop buying groceries. The shopkeeper used one of those old-fashioned balances—two bowls, one holding the weights and the other filled with grains. The scale kept tilting, shifting back and forth. But the shopkeeper didn’t seem concerned. He let it move, adjusted the weights, and each time, he made sure the bowl with the groceries went down, pouring them into my bag.

And then I noticed something - the space around the balance allowed the tilts. It wasn’t rigid. It let the movements happen.

Life is rarely in perfect balance. Some days feel heavy with challenges; other days, we receive more than we expected. We keep trying to hold everything steady, but maybe the secret isn’t in forcing the scales to be even - it’s in making space for the tilts.

What if, instead of resisting life’s imbalances, we allowed them? What if we trusted that, in the end, we will receive what we need?

The shopkeeper didn’t fight the shifting scale. He simply worked with it. And maybe that’s what we’re meant to do too.
