The importance of balance in both the day and night lifes

                 Balance in a way is the vampires first line of defense for pretty much everything life throws at you both metaphysical and non. Now I cant teach you how to obtain and retain it because everyone has their own way of doing it. So instead I'll give you examples as to why balance is so important. Another word for balance is center(ed) it is that point in which everything is as balanced as you can get it.
                 Let's say you are dating or are in a committed relationship, and the other one does not know of your nature. If you start focusing more time on the night then the day it is almost certain they will become curious, and start asking questions before you are ready to answer them. The answer to this is simply don't neglect day side responsibilities. If you look you'll find that happy medium (balance) and can tell them of your nature when you and if you choose.
                Shielding! When using shields one must be able to allow the energy they want in and repel those that they don't. This is usually accomplished most of the time via trial and error, but sooner rather than later will be accomplished. So when you create balance in your shields you are in control and can maintain said balance. For psi's balance is required to not drain someone even if they desperately in need of it.
                Balance is needed when in large crowds for the empathic vamps. What of our sanguinary brethren? if some one cuts a finger balance is in play when one can control the inner vampire. As for tantra vampires the whole act of them feeding is based on balance to souls joined as one.
               What can one take from all of this? The answer is nothing and everything. should you be one of those who believe in that balance is not a necessity. I say good luck and I hope it works out for you. However should you be one who's life is constantly full of turmoil and heartache then this may help you in finding at least some solace within your lives. So anytime you hear someone utter the words "finding a happy medium", regardless of the context in which it is said, they are referring to finding balance.
