"If you chase perfection, you can achieve excellence."


Saber in my hand,

Books weighing down in my arms,

Balance hard to find.


The author's comments:

Sometimes it's hard to find the perfect balance between study and hobbies. Fencing has been a hobby of mine for 6 years, but training takes a lot of time and effort. Studying is also crucial and time-consuming. I'm still searching for that perfect balance.

I love how you got the message across in 3 lines. short, sweet, but deeper.
life will always be a balancing act. I'm a little wobbly myself.
things I'm balancing: home, school, medication, doctors appts, family, friends, and relationships. but my biggest fault is forgetting I still need to add myself into the equation because when I fall, they all fall with me.
